60secondsfarmerslife –
working with farmers on their level

Why does somebody decide to become a farmer? What makes them the farmer they are? What are their needs and what challenges do they face? These are questions we ask ourselves too when it comes to collaboration. Not because we're nosey, but because we're hungry for knowledge! We want to guarantee the people we work with get efficient and individual advice and services tailored to their needs. Transparent and open interaction is crucial here. In our portrait series 60secondsfarmerslife, farmers offer a small insight into their everyday lives.

KWS. Independent like you.

Thank You Farmer!

What would we be without our farmers? Who would make sure that we have food on the table every day? Unfortunately, all too often we forget the efforts behind it. Let us take Thanksgiving Day as an opportunity to say Thank You to all farmers!

365 days a year there for us

Farmers are the pillars of our society. Every day they make sure that we have food on the table. This is something people tend to forget or take for granted. Time to remember.

We owe our success to our independence, a value that connects us with our customers, with farmers who are also usually self-employed entrepreneurs. Our family shareholders hold the majority at KWS and shape the company. This independence gives us the freedom to conduct intensive research and develop new varieties, in order to tailor our portfolio to the needs of our clients.
