Breeding companies

The EVA networks are public-private partnerships and as such, the majority of partners come from the private sector. Partners in the crop-specific EVA networks include breeding companies of all sizes, from small cooperatives to large multinationals, all equally benefiting from their participation in EVA, the exchange of knowledge and the priority access to interesting plant materials and associated large phenotypic datasets from multilocation field trials for traits of interest for breeders.

Breeding companies typically provide in-kind contributions to multiplications and evaluations and perform most of the evaluation field trials.

See below a list of participating breeding companies.
