ABOUT US

İtu Tohumculuk is a Private Sector Agricultural Research Institution that started its operations in 2013. It is an innovative seed company engaged in plant breeding, research on hybrid vegetable varieties, seed production and processing, sales, and marketing.

Using primarily classical breeding methods, the company develops high-quality varieties for professional producers both domestically and internationally. Our company does not engage in any activities related to genetically modified organisms (GMOs). All of our research is conducted in natural environments and is carefully planned and executed by our expert teams, ensuring the utmost sensitivity to human, environmental, and animal health.

With a professional approach to its research, our company focuses on breeding plant species primarily from the Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae families. These include zucchini, watermelon, melon, tomato, and pepper. Additionally, we have an active breeding program for lettuce. To ensure uniform germination in lettuce seeds, we apply priming techniques and use seed coating technologies that facilitate ease of sowing.

Alongside our work on these vegetable varieties, our company also develops innovative varieties that cater to different market demands, such as seedless watermelon and mini melons with unique flavors and aromas. Our expert team provides technical support at every stage of production, from cultivation to harvest.
