Major human resources and modern technologies
Objectives
Through its research activities, Florimond Desprez is working towards two goals. First of all, the company aims to obtain the best possible varieties in line with the commercial requirements of its grower-customers, as well as their advisors and distributors, industrial processing operators and, increasingly, end consumers. However, Florimond Desprez’s research must also harness the full range of innovations, from leading-edge tools (molecular marking, sequencing, genotyping, high-throughput phenotyping, etc.) to the most innovative techniques (AB-QTL, association genetics, genomic selection, bioinformatics, etc.). |

Guidelines

|
Research is faced with an acceleration in terms of breeding, This acceleration makes it vital for an intense dialogue between researchers and those in charge of developing the products. The interface between research and education is more crucial than ever. Researchers need to carry on benefiting from training throughout their career. Hence the importance of the relationships established by Florimond Desprez with universities and high schools. Lastly, research must take regulatory aspects into consideration, from the reform of CAP, and more specifically for Florimond Desprez, the reform of the sugar regime, to regulations such as Ecophyto, which aims to reduce pesticide use. |
