SAATBAU LINZ – AT THE SERVICE OF A FUTURE-ORIENTED AGRICULTURE
We unite all the aspects it takes to run a modern agricultural business: Research and development, production and distribution, economic expertise and international consulting.
Together with our farmers, we organise thousands of hectares of arable land, boasting over 60 years of experience as a "partner for crops" in Europe, and produce top-quality seeds for over 85 crops and more than 380 varieties.
