Solynta’s mission is to help create global solutions for food and nutritional insecurity by giving farmers better, stronger, and more cost-efficient ways to grow crops.

Solynta’s true potato seeds combine years of agricultural experience with the newest hybrid breeding technologies. Solynta’s non-GMO hybrid potato breeding technology will provide resistance to disease and pests, provide ease of use, and facilitate production speed and scalability.

Solynta’s True Potato Seeds technology:
 

  • Replaces 2500 kilo of perishable potato-seed-tubers with 25 grams of pristine true-potato seeds to start a crop
  • By natural breeding, these seeds can be improved much faster with beneficial natural traits like disease resistances - limiting the need for pesticide use- and made more robust against climate change impact.
