HZPC Research
With a dedicated team of around 90 people and over 100 trial locations worldwide, HZPC Research focuses on innovation and collaboration. Improving our variety portfolio and growing techniques every single day.
We develop and innovate together
From processors to packers, retailers to traditional fresh open markets. The breeding of potato varieties benefits from the insights of all. Since 1999 we have involved partners in our R&D process. It has resulted in continuous innovation, durable solutions and new future-proof varieties.
We're always open for new ideas and challenges that contribute to our mission. From the desert to the tropics: we aim to prove it is possible to grow potatoes anywhere and improve reasons to eat potatoes.
Robert Graveland Director HZPC Research
“We believe that every person has a right to healthy nutritious food. Food that is responsibly grown and future-proof. Suited for the different uses, climates and growing conditions around the world.”
State of the art competence level
Our industry has the potential to grow steady, strong, healthy and to remain future-proof. Our specialists always apply the latest know-how and technologies.
Breeding techniques
Techniques and methods are a great help to shorten variety development. Developments in the field of molecular breeding techniques are going fast. Every day we try to apply the latest techniques to develop varieties with an added value for each player in the value chain.
The future is hybrid
To maintain our leading position, HZPC closely follows all new breeding methods and techniques. That is why true potato seed (TPS) on diploid level is of the highest interest.
