Brassica breeding is part of the heritage of Hazera. It originated with development of varieties for Western Europe, but today we are a global player with a wide assortment of purpose specific varieties. Our Research and Breeding teams are closely connected to our global network of subsidiaries and distributors, through whom we are in touch with the latest industry trends and preferred requirements within the various Brassica crops.

Broccoli
Broccoli is considered to be a valuable food since the times of the Roman Empire. It was only introduced to England in mid of the 17th century and became popular in the Americas from the early 1900’s. Hazera focused on developing varieties with exceptional head quality and in recent years on varieties with good heat tolerance.
