The efficiency of our breeding programmes is based on long‑term experience, high level expertise and the use of modern technologies — all applied with Nordic expertise for Northern conditions.
We want to make farming more profitable and sustainable now and in the future. We consider the changing climate in our breeding work and develop new climate resilient varieties that help farmers adapt to the challenges climate change poses for primary production.
Boreal’s breeding programmes include more than a dozen crop species and nearly 20 variety types. Our comprehensive selection ensures that farmers across Finland have access to diverse crop rotations with varieties developed and tested domestically from the beginning.
A diverse crop rotation helps to:
Through long‑term product development, we have significantly improved variety performance, reliability and yield response. Thanks to variety development, more yield can be produced from the same area as before. Improved disease resistance achieved through breeding reduces the need for plant protection products — saving costs for farmers and benefiting the environment.
