The Food Sector develops, processes and markets products that include flour, breakfast foods, pasta, frozen and fresh bread, crispbread and ready-to-eat meals.
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.
The Lantmännen Research Foundation invites researchers to explore and create the opportunities of the future within the fields of Agriculture and machinery, Food and health, and Bioenergy and green materials.
Open call 2025
The Lantmännen Research Foundation has an open call every year. Prior to the open call, the call texts are presented with descriptions of the research needs within the three focus areas: Agriculture and machinery, Food and health, and Bioenergy and green materials.
The call for proposals 2025 is open between 26 June and 30 September.
Decisions on received applications will be announced in early December.
We believe that collaboration is a key factor in successfully tackling today's challenges. Therefore, applicants are welcome to contact us to discuss the possibilities of using Lantmännen's products, side streams, trial sites and other resources in the projects that are planned. In order for a project to be granted funding, the results should be applicable in Sweden or in Northern Europe.
"Research is a possibility to expand and increase knowledge that can be utilized in the journey towards a more sustainable development, from field to fork."
