Regenerative Agricultureš±Episode 1ā Seed production
Regenerative agriculture is now seen as a key lever for restoring soil fertility and improving farm resilience. How can it be adapted to seed production without compromising yields? In 2024, MAS Seeds is accelerating its trials on its pilot farms.
The goal: test, measure, adapt.
- Experimenting with regenerative farming practices in real conditions.
- Assessing the impact on soils, biodiversity, and water resources.
- Maintaining agronomic performance while reducing the carbon footprint.
š” A major challenge: producing more sustainable seeds without compromising productivity.

In 2026, the R&D department has structured a network of experimental farms dedicated to regenerative agriculture research. Why set up experimental farms? Regenerative agriculture relies on a holistic, farm-scale approach to crop rotations and long-term planning. However, traditional R&D methods, based on field-scale trials conducted over a single growing season, do not allow for a […]
Can we predict a variety’s performance⦠before it’s ever been observed in the field? That’s one of the challenges we’re tackling at MAS Seeds. With Industry 4.0 tools, our approach to variety selection is evolving in a meaningful way: š± Our maize and sunflower varieties are now better described and documented through advanced statistical analysis. […]
You may have noticed the mention āAct for Regenerative Agricultureā displayed on MAS Seeds seed bags of maize.This wording aims to make visible, directly on our products, our commitment in favor of regenerative agriculture. Why talk about regenerative agriculture today? For over fifteen years, farmers have faced stagnant and unstable yields in many agricultural regions. The progressive degradation of […]
