Focus on Research & Development
Innovation driven to deliver state of the art solutions
In order to best achieve our missions and as an innovation driven company, we are involved in several international research projects. The projects cover a wide range of - mostly - agricultural topics such as soil science, hydrology, (micro) biology and economics.
Our research projects have the common goal to provide insight into the sustainability of food production systems, to improve the overall sustainability performance of farming systems, and to develop and implement sustainability strategies for companies within the agricultural sector.
We cooperate with several universities and research institutes dedicated to the topic of soil science, composting, emissions reductions, food security and carbon, water or sustainability footprinting. Amongst them are the Sustainable Food Lab, Louis Bolk Institute, FiBL, Wageningen UR, Water Footprint Network, CIAT, and the Heliopolis University for Sustainable Development.
