Research and innovation

Lantmännen's various operations connect the entire value chain from field to fork. Together, we have a unique opportunity to influence and shape the future of agriculture and sustainable food systems. 

 

Lantmännen conducts research and innovation to develop our business in the long term and to contribute to increased profitability on the owners' farms. 

Each business area is responsible for product and business development. Long-term research projects, initiatives for new business and group-wide innovation activities are led by the joint function Lantmännen R&D, which also runs the Lantmännen Research Foundation.

We believe in collaboration

Cooperation and collaboration are necessary to address the complex challenges of the food system. We work actively to build networks with broad expertise from both academia, industry and practical agriculture.

Lantmännen is involved in several major national and international collaborations in areas such as plant breeding, crop production, animal husbandry, green proteins, food and health, as well as green materials.  


The Lantmännen Research Foundation creates opportunities for external researchers to run research projects in relevant areas and collaborate with various activities within Lantmännen. Entrepreneurs, startups and established companies are also welcome to discuss various collaborations and opportunities.
