Breeding Tools
At the forefront of agricultural innovation, modern breeding tools are revolutionising the way we develop new crop varieties.
These advanced techniques, including genomic selection, CRISPR technology, and dRenSeq* a diagnostics tool, all enable breeders to create resilient, high-yield varieties that meet the evolving demands of farmers and consumers alike.
The future of agriculture with modern breeding tools
As your breeding partner, and breeders ourselves, James Hutton Institute can be instrumental in harnessing these technologies to enhance crop performance and sustainability. By integrating cutting-edge research with practical applications. The Institute has successfully developed varieties for our customers that thrive in challenging climates, resist pests and disease challenges, and improve nutritional profiles.
For breeders, this is done quicker than ever before. For producers, these innovations translate into efficiencies, reduced inputs, and increased market competitiveness. By adopting modern breeding tools, farmers can be the biggest beneficiary and ensure food security while minimising environmental impact.
Join us in embracing the future of agriculture—where science meets sustainability, and every seed has the potential to make a difference. Discover how the James Hutton Institute is leading the charge in modern breeding and shaping a more resilient agricultural landscape.
