Together with our customers we looked at what requirements are truly important for sustainable varieties. We came up with 5 sustainable traits; Marketable yield, Fertilizer, Storablilty, Crop protection and Fresh water use.
Now we can finally measure and determine whether a variety is sustainable. Not defining by one single trait but by a balanced set of five.
In our Even Greener calculator, you indicate which traits are most important to you, and we provide a potato variety that meets these requirements. This gives you access to the best sustainable potato varieties.
Even Greener. The future starts in the ground.
