Field trialing is how we make sure what we develop matches real conditions.
At MAS Seeds, our trialing network is built to reflect what the market is asking for across soils, environments and climates. So we can compare hybrids with solid, reliable phenotyping data.
📍 Europe + Mexico + Africa
📊 Up to 400,000 plots
🌽 30,000 hybrids characterized
🌱 400 locations, all on farmers’ fields
The point of this scale: test hybrids across a wide range of factors, and build a consistent offer that makes sense for our structure, while supporting farmers across multiple countries.
