Progress through research.

High-performance varieties and the highest seed quality are important to us. That is why we are constantly developing innovative test procedures and analysis methods in order to continuously improve our seed quality. We use a wide variety of techniques: two-dimensional X-rays, micro-computed tomography, laser light section and near-infrared spectral measurement (NIRS). However, our innovative strength goes far beyond seed quality research. We also rely on digital technologies and robotics to contribute to efficient and sustainable management of agricultural land.

“Climate change is of great importance to us breeders. Higher temperatures and a lack of precipitation mean stress for the sugar beet. Stress makes it more susceptible for the new pests are emerging. Therefore, we place particular emphasis on tolerance and resistance breeding in addition to breeding goals that enhance yield and other properties that are important for the marketing and processing of the sugar beets. Varieties that are particularly good at dealing with new diseases, new pests or drought, for example, are clearly future varieties.”

“Under changing climatic conditions and increased plant resistance to pests and diseases, combined with the requirement to be less reliant on crop protection products, new plant varieties must provide crop management solutions to sustain yield and quality.

 

Our development strategy combines modern technology with the traditional principles of plant breeding for sustainable agriculture, to achieve our objectives for breeding, testing, and releasing of new varieties adapted to a range of increasing environmental pressures.

 

Since 1877, our quest to bring the best wheat varieties to farmers is never-ending.”
