One big family

Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative founded on the deep knowledge our farmers have aquired over generations. We make farming thrive and work together to take responsibility from field to fork.

From field to fork

From our core farming business,  through the value chain, from field to fork, we are involved in every step from sowing to harvesting; to the food on our tables, feed for our livestock and climate –smart biofuels.

Locally and globally

Owned by Swedish farmers, Sweden is our base with the Baltic Sea area as our expanded domestic market. We have a strong international presence, and no matter which country and location we operate in, we always take the same responsibility.

Research for the future

We pursue research and invest in innovation for tomorrow’s agriculture, bioenergy and foods of the future. Innovations are crucial if we are to resolve the challenges of today and tomorrow, which is why Lantmännen also has its own research foundation.

Look for the sprout

You´ll find the Lantmännen sprout on our packaging. The products may be different, but everyone can feel safe that we also minimise impact on climate and people. If you find the sprout on a packet, you can be sure what’s inside is Good Food from Lantmännen.

Climate-efficient agriculture

Through the Paris Agreement we have a clear focus on tackling climate change and moving towards a fossil-free agriculture by 2050. In Sweden, we have an even more ambitious target of zero net emissions by 2045. And we are on our way to achieving this goal.

The Climate & Nature cultivation program

An example of our achievements within agriculture is the development of a smarter way of growing wheat, which has up to 30% less climate impact and at the same time increases biodiversity. We continue to develop and improve cultivation programs as part of our efforts to make grain cultivation even more sustainable.

Perennial cereals

Research on perennial cereals is expected to take 10–15 years. Perennial cereals can be harvested year after year and are therefore able to create huge root systems which have several positive effects, such as being used as a carbon sink.

More about perennial cereals

Soil as a carbon sink

We are conducting research to gain better knowledge and develop more innovations that contribute to increasing  carbon sequestration in grasslands and agricultural land, for example within Sweden Food Arena, a collaborative innovation forum within the food sector.

Fossil-free transports

Lantmännen works actively to reduce the climate impact of transports – both in its own operations and together with our business partners throughout the value chain. An important contribution in the transition to a fossil-free vehicle fleet.

Climate-smart fertilisers

Fertilisers are one of the major sources of emissions within agriculture and is therefore one of our most important research areas. Fertilisers known as BAT fertilisers are already a part of our Climate & Nature cultivation concept and is an important first step in tackling emissions.

Precision agriculture

Precision cultivation is about employing new technology to adapt seed, fertiliser and crop protection to the field the crop is to be grown in, in order to get the most uniform outcome possible.

Fossil free tractors

For Lantmännen it’s important to contribute to the green transition of farm tractors, from using fossil fuels to renewables. This is why we are testdriving tractors from Valtra with fossilfree fuels, such as RME, an alternative to diesel based on rape that reduces climate impact.

Our areas of innovation

Food innovation & health

When the wheat, oats and other cereals have been harvested and left the farm, they are being handled by our experts at the mill, the bakery and our other food establishments and become Good food. And functional food with the food’s own healthy properties in focus.

Smart protein sources

Producing meat requires a lot of resources. Therefore, we take responsibility by developing new crops rich in plantbased proteins as well as developing feed concepts for a sustainable future livestock production. We drive the development of feed for Swedish animals and soils, with less impact on the environment.

Biodiversity & ecosystem services

The efficiency of agriculture have resulted in changes that have affected the arable landscape, which has led to falling numbers of some species. Through our research and innovation work, we contribute to the positive development of biodiversity.

Innovative cultivation methods

Lantmännen invests significant resources in research and development of new types of crops. These are long term investments that contributes to more sustainable farming - a more efficient production of food - with less environmental impact, in the future.

Circular bioflows

To minimise waste, we are creating more and more circular flows. From field to fork and back into the loop again. It is an important part of our responsibility and is crucial in order to increase resource efficiency in our production, while reducing our impact on the climate and environment.
