History of the company's development
The agricultural company developed together with sugar beets. This is the main focus of the company.
It was founded in 1856.in Klein-Wanzleben near Magdeburg. Then, gradually developing and opening subsidiaries, in 1900 they opened an enterprise in Ukraine.
Since 1920, breeding work began to develop new varieties of grains, potatoes and fodder beets. After the war they resumed their work in the city of Einbeck. The assortment expanded; they began to produce varieties of corn, leguminous and oilseed crops.
Since 1961, subsidiaries began to open throughout Europe. Breeding developments continued. They developed at a rapid pace, which was influenced by cooperation with other companies.
In 1972, a laboratory for cell biology research was opened. And then our own institute “Planta Applied Plant Genetics and Biotechnology GmbH”.
In 2008, the company opened an experimental station in Doctorovo. It conducts research activities exclusively in the regions of Russia.
Over the years, the company's income increased significantly, which made it possible to finance the opening of new enterprises outside the continent and the conduct of breeding work.
Gradually developing, the company opened its enterprises in 70 countries. The company employs 5,000 thousand people. And they trust her much more.
Production range
Over more than 160 years of production, the company has developed many varieties and hybrids of crops. They are purchased for mass planting and cultivation for processing. The company produces seeds:

In addition, the company sells plant nutrition and fertilizers. The seeds germinate thanks to special treatment.The coating mass contains components that help speed up germination and increase germination.

Opinions about the agricultural company KWS AG
A big plus for the company is the presence of positive reviews from those who have used their products:

Other manufacturers are just beginning to introduce such processing, but KWS AG has been using it in its work for a long time. We will buy corn planting material and want to try to grow it.”
