Sandra Peterson, group chief executive, was quoted in FruitNet as saying that, ‘between 2011 and 2016, a total of €5bn would go into R&D projects aimed at developing new types of seed’, including vegetable varieties, as well as pushing forward innovation in its chemical and organic crop protection business.
A further €2bn of the planned investment funding will be channelled into the expansion of its crop protection product output and expanding seed processing facilities.
