| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Description of Business and Basis of Presentation | 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Organization Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated in the state of Arizona in 2002 and maintains its headquarters in Davis, California, with additional facilities in Seattle, Washington; Phoenix, Arizona; and American Falls, Idaho. The Company was reincorporated in Delaware in March 2015. The Company pursues agriculture-based biotechnology business opportunities that improve the environment and human health. The Company is an agricultural biotechnology trait company with an extensive and diversified portfolio of late-stage crop productivity and product quality traits addressing multiple crops that supply the global food and feed markets. Its traits are focused on high-value enhancements that increase crop yields by enabling plants to more efficiently manage environmental and nutrient stresses, and that enhance the quality and value of agricultural products. In February 2012, the Company formed Verdeca LLC (“Verdeca”, see Note 6), which is jointly owned with Bioceres, Inc. (“Bioceres”), a U.S. wholly owned subsidiary of Bioceres, S.A., an Argentine corporation. Bioceres, S.A. is an agricultural investment and development cooperative. Verdeca was formed to develop and deregulate soybean varieties using both partners’ agricultural technologies. Reverse Stock Split In April 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved an amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse split on the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at a one-for-four ratio. In May 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the certificate of amendment, which the Company filed on May 8, 2015 with the Secretary of State of Delaware to effect the reverse split. The par value and authorized shares of common stock and convertible preferred stock were not adjusted as a result of the reverse split. All issued and outstanding common stock, options to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in the consolidated financial statement have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have also been retroactively adjusted to reflect a proportional adjustment for the conversion ratio for each series of redeemable convertible preferred stock and convertible preferred stock. Initial Public Offering In May 2015, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) and subsequently in June 2015, the Company completed the sale of additional shares upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. In connection with the IPO, the Company issued 8,528,306 shares of common stock at $8.00 per share, which raised $58.4 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $4.8 million and offering expenses of $5.0 million. At the closing of the IPO, all of the outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock were automatically converted into 32,972,793 shares of common stock. Following the IPO, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding. In connection with the IPO, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the authorized capital stock to 400,000,000 shares designated as common stock and 20,000,000 shares designated as preferred stock, all with a par value of $0.001 per share. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Verdeca LLC in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company uses a qualitative approach in assessing the consolidation requirement for variable interest entities (“VIEs”). This approach focuses on determining whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. For all periods presented, the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of Verdeca, which is a VIE. The Company evaluates its relationships with the VIEs upon the occurrence of certain significant events that affect the design, structure or other factors pertinent to the primary beneficiary determination. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. The information included in these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 8, 2016. |

| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update impacts classification, additional fair value measurement, impairment assessment of equity investments and current required disclosures. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted if the entity meets certain early application guidance. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on its operating results and financial position. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Based on the new standard, leases would recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) and ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The revenue-related update does not change the core principal of the guidance but provides clarification on the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The standard’s effective date is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09, which is January 1, 2018. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this ASU will materially change the presentation of its consolidated financial statements. The compensation-related standard involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on its consolidated financial statements. |

| Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 4. Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments Available-for-Sale Investments The Company classified cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments as “available-for-sale.” Investments are free of trading restrictions. The investments are carried at fair value, based on quoted market prices or other readily available market information. Unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is reflected as a separate component of stockholder’s equity (deficit) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses are recognized when realized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company did not have available-for-sale securities prior to third quarter of 2015. The Company’s investments in fixed income securities consisted of the following as of March 31, 2016:
The Company did not have any investment categories that were in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than twelve months as of March 31, 2016. The unrealized gains and losses amounts above are included in AOCI. All long-term investments will mature in 2017. As of March 31, 2016, for fixed income securities that were in unrealized loss positions, the Company has determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments, and (ii) it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. The Company anticipates that it will recover the entire amortized cost basis of such fixed income securities and has determined that no other-than-temporary impairments associated with credit losses were required to be recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Fair Value Measurement Fair value accounting is applied for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity, associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities are as follows:
The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximated their fair values due to the short period of time to maturity or repayment. The fair value of the available-for-sale investments at March 31, 2016 were as follows:
The carrying values of the Company’s promissory notes, convertible promissory notes, and notes payable approximate their fair values for the three ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 as the market rates currently available to the Company and other assumptions have not changed significantly. These were classified as Level 2. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities measured and recorded on a recurring basis consist of derivative liabilities related to the convertible promissory note. The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value and other adjustments of these derivative liabilities (in thousands):

| Equity Method Investments And Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
| Investment in Unconsolidated Entity | 5. Investment in Unconsolidated Entity The Company owns a 35% ownership position in Limagrain Cereal Seeds LLC (“LCS”). The remaining 65% of LCS is owned by Vilmorin & Cie, a major global producer and marketer of field crop and vegetable seeds and affiliate of Groupe Limagrain (“Limagrain”), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Vilmorin USA (“VUSA”). LCS improves and develops new wheat and barley varieties utilizing genetic and breeding resources, as well as advanced technologies from Limagrain and the Company. Funding for LCS comes from an initial pro rata equity investment from each partner and with subsequent financing in the form of debt from VUSA. As of March 31, 2016, the debt balance was $20.0 million with a maturity date of July 15, 2016. It is the Company’s expectation that VUSA will provide LCS with additional debt financing and extend maturity for repayment as needed. Should the debt be converted into equity or additional capital in the form of equity be necessary to support the operations of LCS, the Company has the option to fund its pro rata share of such cash or elect to have its ownership percentage diluted subject to an agreed valuation. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s investment in LCS has been reduced to $0 as a result of its equity method loss recognition. |

| Equity Method Investments And Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
| Variable Interest Entity | 6. Variable Interest Entity In February 2012, the Company formed Verdeca LLC, which is jointly owned with Bioceres, Inc. ("Bioceres"), a U.S. wholly owned subsidiary of Bioceres, S.A., an Argentine corporation. Bioceres, S.A. is an agricultural investment and development cooperative owned by approximately 250 shareholders, including some of South America’s largest soybean growers. Verdeca was formed to develop and deregulate soybean varieties using both partners’ agricultural technologies. Both the Company and Bioceres incur expenses in support of specific activities agreed, as defined by joint work plans, which apply fair market value to each partner’s activities. Unequal contributions of services are equalized by the partners through cash payments. Verdeca is not the primary obligor for these activities performed by the Company or Bioceres. An agreement executed in conjunction with the formation of Verdeca specified that if Bioceres determines it requires cash to fund its contributed services (subject to certain annual limits), Bioceres, S.A. may elect to sell shares of its common stock to the Company for an amount not exceeding $5.0 million in the aggregate over a four-year period. The Company determined that its commitment to purchase common stock in Bioceres, S.A. as a means to provide capital to Verdeca resulted in a de facto agency relationship between the Company and Bioceres. The Company considers qualitative factors in assessing the primary beneficiary which include understanding the purpose and design of the VIE, associated risks that the VIE creates, activities that could be directed by the Company, and the expected relative impact of those activities on the economic performance of the VIE. Based on an evaluation of these factors, the Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary of Verdeca. As a result of the agreement to fund future contributions by Bioceres, Inc., the Company purchased common stock of Bioceres, S.A. in the aggregate amount of $2.0 million between January 2013 and August 2014. The Company’s maximum commitment to purchase stock in Bioceres, S.A. under the original funding agreement amounted to $2.0 million for 2014 and $1.2 million for 2015. In September 2014, the Company and Bioceres, S.A. entered into an agreement to reduce the annual commitment for 2014 to $500,000 and to eliminate the 2015 commitment. In consideration for these amendments, the Company surrendered 1,832 shares of Bioceres, S.A. held by the Company. The Company recorded an expense of $1.5 million related to this agreement, which is classified as research and development expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the year ended December 31, 2014. In addition, the Company had a right to require Bioceres, S.A. to repurchase any shares of common stock then owned by the Company upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the agreement, and similarly, Bioceres, S.A. had the right to require the Company to sell back any shares of common stock owned by the Company under certain circumstances. The Company entered into a subcontracted research agreement in 2015 with Bioceres S.A. and Bioceres Semillas, S.A., a subsidiary of Bioceres S.A. Per the agreement, the Company could pay for these services with a combination of cash and Bioceres S.A. shares. As of December 31, 2015, the liability for the aforementioned research agreement was settled with $205,000 of cash and the remaining 632 Bioceres S.A. shares, with a fair value of $500,000, held by the Company, thus reducing the cost investment on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet to $0. Under the terms of the joint development agreement, the Company has incurred direct expenses and allocated overhead in the amounts of $40,000 and $163,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. |

| Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt | 7. Debt Long-term Debt Long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):
In July 2012, a 36month $8.0 million term note was executed with Moral Compass Corporation (“MCC”), the Company’s largest stockholder, and was subordinate to existing promissory notes and convertible promissory notes. The interest rate on the loan was prime plus 2%, with interest only paid monthly in arrears. The principal was due in full at maturity in July 2015. On November 10, 2014, the Company and MCC entered into an amendment to the term loan under which the maturity date was extended to the first to occur of the following dates: (i) April 1, 2016, (ii) the date of an Event of Default, or (iii) a date designated by MCC, by notice to the Company, no earlier than the 20th day following consummation by the Company of an equity financing with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50 million. In addition, the interest rate remained at prime plus 2% through December 31, 2014, and was amended to increase to 11% per annum thereafter until maturity. The balance of the note, inclusive of accrued interest, was approximately $8.0 million as of December 31, 2014. Accrued interest of $36,000 was recorded in amounts due to related parties on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2014. This term note, including the principal balance of $8.0 million and accrued interest and prepayment fee of $148,000 was paid in full in April 2015. A prepayment fee of $80,000 was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt. Promissory notes were executed with an unrelated party in August 2013 and November 2013 in the amounts of $2.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The interest rate on the notes was 10% with principal and interest due in 36 equal monthly installments over the course of their respective threeyear terms. These notes, including the aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1.6 million and accrued interest and prepayment fee of $44,000, were paid in full in April 2015. A prepayment fee of $37,000 was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt. In April 2015, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with an unrelated party, under which the Company incurred an aggregate principal amount of $20.0 million in term loan borrowings (the “Term Loans”), proceeds of which were used to repay existing debt with MCC and an unrelated party as described above. Under this loan agreement, interest on the Term Loans accrued at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) 9.0% and (ii) a fluctuating rate of interest equal to threemonth LIBOR as in effect from time to time plus 8.74%. The Company was required to make interestonly payments under this agreement from the drawdown dates through April 30, 2016, subject to certain conditions for extension to October 31, 2016. . This agreement provided for a right of prepayment with associated prepayment fees and an additional end-of-term payment of $600,000 due upon maturity or when the Term Loans are prepaid in whole or in part to the lenders. As part of the Term Loans, the Company also issued the lenders warrants to purchase 1,503,760 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $5.32 per share, which were only exercisable in the event that an IPO was not completed prior to September 30, 2015 and would have remained exercisable until November 1, 2018. The Company initially recorded $356,000 for the fair value of the warrants as a liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, which was subject to subsequent remeasurement for changes in fair value until exercise or expiration. In addition, the Company concluded that the interest rate adjustment upon nonoccurrence of an IPO was an embedded derivative and recorded $81,000 for the fair value of the embedded derivative as a liability, which was subject to subsequent remeasurement for changes in fair value until exercise or expiration. The proceeds received under the Term Loans, less fees paid to the lender of $290,000, were allocated to the warrant liability and the embedded derivative liability based on their initial fair values with the residual amount recorded as notes payable. The resulting debt discount was to be amortized as interest expense over the term of the Term Loans using the effective interest method. The interest expense related to the debt discount was $301,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. In May 2015, upon the completion of the IPO, the warrants were terminated and the right to adjust the interest rate upon nonoccurrence of an IPO was relinquished. As such, the Company released the initial fair value of the warrants and the embedded derivative of $437,000 to other income. The Company recognized interest expense inclusive of the debt discount related to the combined Term Loans of $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. Two convertible promissory notes (“Convertible Promissory Notes”) and a warrant purchase agreement were executed in September 2013 and December 2013 with Mahyco International, an affiliate of Maharashtra Hybrid Seeds Company Ltd. (“Mahyco”), which is a licensee of the Company’s technologies. The Convertible Promissory Notes were issued in the amounts of $500,000 in September 2013 and $4.5 million in December 2013. The interest rate on the Convertible Promissory Notes was prime plus 2%, compounded monthly over the course of the fiveyear terms ending September and December 2018, and was payable in full on the maturity dates. At any time during the term, the lender could convert all or part of the outstanding balance of the Convertible Promissory Notes (including principal and accrued but unpaid interest) into common stock of the Company at $16.52 per share through December 2016 and at 90% of the most recent offering thereafter. At its option, Mahyco International could offset future fee payments due from Mahyco to the Company against the outstanding balance of the Convertible Promissory Notes (including principal and accrued but unpaid interest). Mahyco International had the right to demand immediate settlement of a portion of the outstanding balance of the Convertible Promissory Notes, subject to mutual agreement by the Company. The Company recorded a derivative liability for the initial fair value of the settlement obligation. In addition, Mahyco International had the right, at its option, to place another $5.0 million of convertible debt with the Company during the fiveyear term. The Company recorded an additional derivative liability for the initial fair value of the Company’s obligation to issue the additional $5.0 million of convertible promissory notes. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities were recorded to other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. In conjunction with the Convertible Promissory Notes, the Company issued to Mahyco International a warrant (the “Mahyco Warrant”) to purchase 75,666 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $16.52. The Mahyco Warrant was issued in December 2013, vested immediately and remains exercisable throughout the original fiveyear term. The Company allocated the gross proceeds from the Convertible Promissory Notes to the derivative liabilities based on their initial fair values and the remainder of the proceeds to the Convertible Promissory Notes and Mahyco Warrant on a relative fair value basis. The amount allocated to the Mahyco Warrant was recorded as a debt discount to be amortized as interest expense over the estimated term of the note and warrant purchase agreement using the effective interest rate method. The Company recognized interest expense related to the Convertible Promissory Notes of $276,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. In March 2015, the parties amended the Mahyco Warrant to clarify certain terms relating to expiration. The Company accounted for the amendment as a modification with the incremental increase in fair value of $197,000 as of the amendment date, which was accounted for as a deemed dividend to the warrant holder. In December 2015, the Company entered into a new loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”) providing for a senior secured term loan facility in the amount of $25.0 million. Proceeds were used by the Company to repay all existing debt including the Term Loans’ principal balance of $20.0 million and related accrued interest, prepayment and other fees in the amount of $1.3 million and the Convertible Promissory Notes’ principal balance of $3.7 million and associated accrued interest of $154,000. The Term Loans’ prepayment and end of term fees of $1.2 million were recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt, along with the $427,000 unamortized debt discount and $58,000 of deferred loan issuance fees. In addition, Mahyco International’s option to place another $5.0 million of convertible debt was surrendered with the repayment and the related derivative liabilities totaling $1.6 million were released and recorded as a gain on extinguishment of debt. Under this new loan and security agreement, interest accrues at a floating rate per annual rate equal to nine tenths of one percentage point (0.90%) above the prime rate published from time to time in The Wall Street Journal. The agreement requires the Company to make monthly interest-only payments through December 2017. After this date, the Company is required to make thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments of principal, plus accrued interest. The Company’s final payment, due on the maturity date of December 1, 2020, shall include all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest plus a final payment equal to $600,000. In the event the loan is repaid prior to its maturity, a prepayment fee is due equal to 3% of the outstanding principal amount if prepayment occurs after December 29, 2016 but on or before December 29, 2017, and 1% of the outstanding principal amount if the prepayment occurs after December 29, 2017. The loan has been recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, net of approximately $70,000 related to issuance fees. The Company recognized interest expense of $327,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

| Disclosure Of Compensation Related Costs Sharebased Payments [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Stock-Based Compensation | 8. Stock-Based Compensation Stock Incentive Plans The Company has two equity incentive plans: the 2006 Stock Plan (“2006 Plan”) and the 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”). In 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Plan, which provided for the granting of stock options to executives, employees, and other service providers under terms and provisions established by the Board of Directors. The Company granted options under the 2006 Plan until May 2015, when it was terminated as to future awards, although it continues to govern the terms of options that remain outstanding under the 2006 Plan. Certain options vested upon completion of the IPO and the remaining unvested options vest over original service periods between two-and-a-quarter and four years. The 2015 Plan became effective upon the IPO in May 2015 and all shares that were reserved, but not issued, under the 2006 Plan were assumed by the 2015 Plan. Upon effectiveness, the 2015 Plan had 3,087,729 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance, which included 212,729 shares under the 2006 Plan that were transferred to and assumed by the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan provides for automatic annual increases in shares available for grant, beginning on January 1, 2016. In addition, shares subject to awards under the 2006 Plan that are forfeited or canceled will be added to the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options (“ISOs”), nonstatutory stock options (“NSOs”), restricted stock awards, stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other forms of equity compensation, all of which may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors, and consultants. The ISOs and NSOs will be granted at a price per share not less than the fair value at date of grant. Options granted generally vest over a four-year period, with 25% vesting at the end of one year and the remaining vesting monthly thereafter. Options granted generally are exercisable for up to 10 years. As of March 31, 2016, a total of 4,829,040 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2015 Plan, of which 4,784,040 shares of common stock are available for future grant. As of March 31, 2016, a total of 3,326,795 and 45,000 options are outstanding under the 2006 and 2015 Plans, respectively. A summary of activity under the stock incentive plans is as follows (in thousands, except share data and price per share):
As of March 31, 2016, there was $511,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based compensation grants that will be recognized over the weighted-average remaining recognition period of 1.82 years. The weighted-average estimated grant-date fair value of employee stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $4.62. There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Employee Stock Purchase Plan Concurrent with the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 on May 14, 2015, the Company’s 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) became effective. The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their eligible compensation, subject to any plan limitations. After the first offering period, which began on May 14, 2015 and ended on February 1, 2016, the ESPP provides for six-month offering periods, and at the end of each offering period, employees are able to purchase shares at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the first trading day of the offering period or on the last day of the offering period. As of March 31, 2016, the number of shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under the ESPP is 1,027,741. The ESPP provides for automatic annual increases in the shares available for purchase beginning on January 1, 2016. As of March 31, 2016, 34,759 shares had been issued under the ESPP. The Company recorded $30,000 of compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016. |

Income Taxes |

| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | 9. Income Taxes Income tax expense during interim periods is based on applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to year-to-date income, plus any significant unusual or infrequently occurring items that are recorded in the interim period. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in various jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is obtained, additional information becomes known or as the tax environment changes. The interim financial statement provision for income taxes expense is different from the amounts computed by applying the United States federal statutory income tax rate of 34%. The Company’s effective tax rate (ETR) was -0.1% and -4.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The difference between the effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 34% was primarily due to the full valuation allowance recorded on the Company’s net deferred tax assets and foreign withholding taxes. As of March 31, 2016, there have been no material changes to the Company’s uncertain tax positions.

| Contingent Liability Related to the Anawah Acquisition | 10. Contingent Liability Related to the Anawah Acquisition On June 15, 2005, the Company completed its agreement and plan of merger and reorganization with Anawah, Inc. (“Anawah” or “Sellers”), to purchase the Sellers’ food and agricultural research company through a stock purchase. Pursuant to the merger with Anawah, the Company incurred a contingent liability not to exceed $5.0 million. This liability represents amounts to be paid to Anawah’s previous stockholders for cash collected on revenue recognized by the Company upon commercial sale of certain specific products developed using technology acquired in the purchase. As of December 31, 2010, the Company ceased activities relating to three of the six Anawah product programs and, as a result, reduced the contingent liability to $3.0 million. As of March 31, 2016, the Company believes the contingent liability is appropriate as it continues to pursue three development programs using this technology. |

| Net Loss per Share | 11. Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and excludes any dilutive effects of stock-based awards and warrants. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares, including common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of convertible promissory notes, redeemable convertible preferred stock and convertible preferred stock. As the Company had net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, all potentially dilutive common shares were determined to be anti-dilutive. Securities that were not included in the diluted per share calculations because they would be anti-dilutive were as follows (in shares):

| Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
| Related-Party Transactions | 12. Related-Party Transactions The Company’s related parties include MCC, Blue Horse Labs, Inc. (“BHL”), and Limagrain. BHL is deemed a related party as a result of its existing contractual relationship with the Company and because a Director of the Company also serves as the Treasurer of BHL and as an Officer and Director of MCC, the Company’s controlling stockholder as of March 31, 2016. Transactions with related parties are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements under amounts due to or from related parties and notes payable to related party. Outlined below are details of agreements between the Company and its related parties: A term note was executed with MCC in July 2012 for $8.0 million (see Note 7). This note was paid off in full in April 2015. The interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $217,000. Under a license agreement executed in 2003 and amended in 2009, BHL receives a single-digit royalty from the Company when revenue has been collected on product sales or for license payments from third parties that involve certain intellectual property developed under research funding from BHL. Royalty fees due to BHL were $13,000 and $19,000 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and are included in the consolidated balance sheets as amounts due to related parties. License agreements were executed with Limagrain, a stockholder of the Company, in September 2009 and February 2011. The agreements license certain of the Company’s traits to Limagrain and include up-front license fees, annual license fees, milestone fees and value-sharing payments. The Company recognized $23,000 of revenue under these agreements in each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. No amounts were due from Limagrain as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. |

| Organization | Organization Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated in the state of Arizona in 2002 and maintains its headquarters in Davis, California, with additional facilities in Seattle, Washington; Phoenix, Arizona; and American Falls, Idaho. The Company was reincorporated in Delaware in March 2015. The Company pursues agriculture-based biotechnology business opportunities that improve the environment and human health. The Company is an agricultural biotechnology trait company with an extensive and diversified portfolio of late-stage crop productivity and product quality traits addressing multiple crops that supply the global food and feed markets. Its traits are focused on high-value enhancements that increase crop yields by enabling plants to more efficiently manage environmental and nutrient stresses, and that enhance the quality and value of agricultural products. In February 2012, the Company formed Verdeca LLC (“Verdeca”, see Note 6), which is jointly owned with Bioceres, Inc. (“Bioceres”), a U.S. wholly owned subsidiary of Bioceres, S.A., an Argentine corporation. Bioceres, S.A. is an agricultural investment and development cooperative. Verdeca was formed to develop and deregulate soybean varieties using both partners’ agricultural technologies. |
| Reverse Stock Split | Reverse Stock Split In April 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved an amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse split on the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at a one-for-four ratio. In May 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the certificate of amendment, which the Company filed on May 8, 2015 with the Secretary of State of Delaware to effect the reverse split. The par value and authorized shares of common stock and convertible preferred stock were not adjusted as a result of the reverse split. All issued and outstanding common stock, options to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in the consolidated financial statement have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented. The consolidated financial statements have also been retroactively adjusted to reflect a proportional adjustment for the conversion ratio for each series of redeemable convertible preferred stock and convertible preferred stock. |
| Initial Public Offering | Initial Public Offering In May 2015, the Company completed an initial public offering (the “IPO”) and subsequently in June 2015, the Company completed the sale of additional shares upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. In connection with the IPO, the Company issued 8,528,306 shares of common stock at $8.00 per share, which raised $58.4 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions of $4.8 million and offering expenses of $5.0 million. At the closing of the IPO, all of the outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock were automatically converted into 32,972,793 shares of common stock. Following the IPO, there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding. In connection with the IPO, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the authorized capital stock to 400,000,000 shares designated as common stock and 20,000,000 shares designated as preferred stock, all with a par value of $0.001 per share. |
| Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Verdeca LLC in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company uses a qualitative approach in assessing the consolidation requirement for variable interest entities (“VIEs”). This approach focuses on determining whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and whether the Company has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. For all periods presented, the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of Verdeca, which is a VIE. The Company evaluates its relationships with the VIEs upon the occurrence of certain significant events that affect the design, structure or other factors pertinent to the primary beneficiary determination. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. The information included in these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included herein and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on March 8, 2016. |

All or a portion of the unrealized holding gain (loss) of an Available-for-sale security that is designated as being hedged in a fair value hedge is recognized in earnings during the period of the hedge, as are other than temporary declines in fair value below the cost basis for investments in equity securities and debt securities that an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell before the recovery of its amortized cost basis.
