Objectives

One possible reason for low market share of varieties from organic breeding programs is the inadequately developed structures for seed multiplication of organically bred varieties. These in turn are mainly due to economic +practical risks, especially in the first stages of seed multiplication. The innovative approach of this project aims to improve the availability +quality of cereal seeds +varieties from organic breeding programs. A fundamental reorganisation +expansion of the existing structures for seed multiplication is planned for this purpose. By integrating the entire value chain, comprehensive solutions are to be found for breeding goals, multiplication processes + marketing.
