Driving Innovation in Indian Agriculture
At Sakata Seed India, research powers everything we do. From our Bengaluru Research Station to our nationwide network, our breeders, pathologists, and biotechnologists develop vegetable and flower varieties perfectly suited to Indian conditions. By blending global genetics with local expertise, we create crops that are easier to grow, more resilient, and higher yielding, helping farmers achieve consistent, profitable harvests.
Solutions for Farmers, Value for Dealers and Partners
Our R&D is focused on real-world impact. Farmers benefit from high-performing, disease-resistant vegetables like Tomato, Pepper, Okra, and Cucurbits, as well as premium flowers such as Eustoma.
Our Product Development team supports them on the ground with technical guidance and field insights to maximise results. Dealers and partners gain access to reliable, high-quality Sakata seeds that meet diverse market needs, strengthening supply chains and delivering greater value to farming communities across India.
Supply Chain Management
At Sakata Seed India, our supply chain is built to deliver high-quality seeds, on time, every time. From Parent Seed Production (PSP) and Hybrid Seed Production (HSP) to processing, storage, and distribution, every step is closely monitored to protect genetic purity, health, and performance.
We follow international quality standards (ISTA) with rigorous testing for genetic purity, germination, vigour, and physical cleanliness. Advanced processing facilities, climate-controlled storage, and secure packaging ensure seed integrity until it reaches farmers.
Our integrated logistics network and strong coordination between production, supply, and sales enable reliable, demand-driven delivery across India. QR-enabled labelling and traceability further enhance transparency and farmer support.
