We want to help growers get the best out of our varieties: to maximize their yield and achieve the highest quality. One important technique used is called ‘grafting’: a shoot from one plant cultivar is grafted onto the root system, or ‘rootstock’, of another. The result is a crop that has the best of both worlds.
Rijk Zwaan's approach to fighting food loss and waste.
Did you know that one third* of the food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted worldwide? Food waste is at the heart of many of the major problems the world is currently facing. In these uncertain times, it is important to get the basics right, be it through improved resilience a longer shelf life, or reliable yields.
