Maize: a key to build our future

Choosing corn means choosing a crop capable of meeting a wide range of needs: animal feed, biomass, energy, industrial applications, and a contribution to European agricultural self-sufficiency.

Choosing European seeds also means relying on an industry that selects, tests, and produces in Europe, with in-depth knowledge of our growing conditions and how they are changing.

Farmers who monitor their soils, adapt their practices, embrace innovations, and drive progress on their farms.

Because corn is an asset for our future.
Because its future is being built here, in Europe.
And because those who grow it have every reason to be proud of it.

Drought, heat, water availability, and disease pressure: production conditions are changing and require ever greater precision.

Crop breeding is evolving alongside them.

European seed companies are now focusing not only on yield potential, but also on tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and the ability of varieties to efficiently utilize available resources.

Genomic data, experimentation, and now artificial intelligence are further accelerating this progress. The cycle required to develop a new variety—which used to take nearly ten years—can now be reduced to five or six years.
