Producing high quality seeds to express their genetic potential
MAS Seeds owns 3 main production areas, each with a seed producer network, a manufacturing factory and a quality laboratory for a production capacity of over 25 000 ha, mostly corn, sunflower, oilseed rapes, forages, cereals and beets,
- South-West of France,
- Saragosse, Spain,
- Dnipro region in Ukrain
Each seed processing facility has high-tech industrial capacities and are ESTA quality assurance system certified. Each facility follows a strictly managed quality procedure. Production protocols are adapted to each variety with quality controls at each step of the process. « A la carte » calibration methods are applied to guarantee the best seed homogeneity in each bag. Our factory in France is ORGANIC certified in order to deliver high quality organic seeds.
We recently expanded our production zone to Russia and work with production partners in Turkey and Italy to diversify our origins and secure production. Parental line seed, experimental seed and out of season production networks in Africa and America complete this expansion.
A department is dedicated to research in production and in seed protection allows us to constantly improve our seeds quality and integrate the latest innovations for our clients. Developed by our experts, AGROSTART is MAS Seeds solution for corn and sunflower seed treatment, allowing the optimal field establishment and early vigor in any weather condition.
SEED QUALITY IS OUR PRIORITY
We evaluate the quality of the seeds at each stage of manufacturing to reach a quality standard which is more demanding that the regulation given by the SOC (Service Officiel de Contrôle et de Certification). Our control quality laboratories work hand-in-hand with our factories to certificate the seeds and to secure a high quality level of the final goods.
