For the love of farming, the biggest job on earth
No farming, no food. It's as simple as that. But with climate change and a growing population, it's not easy for farmers. We need to help them in any way we can. Through science, technology and this huge wake-up call.
Why we bring the lab to the field
The world needs food. Let’s rephrase that. The world needs farmers to grow food. A line of business that is under constant pressure. Climate change, extreme weather conditions, a growing global population … Not to mention the economic pressure and environmental demands.
So, how can they remain profitable in a changing world when crops stay the same? That’s where we come in. As part of BASF Agricultural Solutions division. We’re all here to help farmers thrive and this is how we do it. In close collaboration with universities and biotech experts across the street and across the globe.
