Seed Factory 🏗️ Episode 5 – Renewable energies and sustainability Modernization
- 🌿 Reducing environmental impact: an industrial priority : We are moving decisively toward a more efficient and responsible industry.
- 🔋 Measure to manage better: we’ve implemented a supervision system to closely monitor our energy consumption, especially on dryers.
- ♻️ Substitute rather than compensate: we’re working to replace natural gas with biosourced gas from methanization.
- 🌱 Treat differently: our R&D teams are actively exploring natural alternatives to chemical seed treatment, particularly plant-based solutions.
These actions are part of a broader agroecological approach, driven by our industrial sites in close collaboration with local stakeholders.
🎥 In this new episode, hear from Bertrand Despagnet and Anne Marie Tachéé as they explain how we work daily to produce better with less environmental impact.
📢 How can we combine industrial innovation, energy efficiency, and on-the-ground requirements?
📲 Watch the video and see how we’re shaping the future of seed production!

While maize and sunflower performance varied significantly between regions, the 2026 season confirmed the growing importance of resilient genetics to secure production in an increasingly variable climate.
Each year, MAS Seeds’ breeding programs generate vast amounts of data from field trials, agronomic observations, and genetic analyses. To help its teams unlock the full value of this information, MAS Seeds has partnered with Ploid to integrate artificial intelligence into its analytical workflows. The collaboration aims to make advanced analyses more accessible, helping researchers […]
The Haut-Mauco industrial industrial site (France) has achieved ISO 50001 certification following an audit carried out by AFNOR Certification. This recognition rewards several years of collective work to better monitor, manage and reduce our energy consumption.
