Commitment N° 2: To innovate to produce more and better

Limagrain aims at rigorous control of all its chains, from collection right up to transformation, through optimal traceability, from the variety right up to the cereal seeds. Our production chain organization means that consumers have access to healthy products, based on professional production methods In most countries today, the marketing of seeds or young plants for an agricultural or vegetable crop variety is subject to strict regulations. Marketing regulations can be divided up into two categories. The first, “catalogue” regulations or homologation, is a selective procedure. It applies in most countries in the world with the exception, for example, of the United States and Japan. The second, which concerns seed certification, is based on variety certification that covers the identity and varietal purity, and on the technological certification that guarantees the specific purity and the germination faculty of the seeds.
