Discover our work field Research & Breeding
Do you want to be part of a team at the forefront of research and innovation? At Research & Breeding, we work together to advance scientific research and develop new technologies for vegetable seed production. From conducting highly specialised research to support breeding, seed production and processing to developing ambitious breeding programs for crops around the world.


Are you up to a challenge?
Every year, we introduce new varieties from our breeding program. Vegetables that are even tastier and healthier. Varieties that are more resilient to (local) diseases and climate change. Seeds that deliver higher and uniform yields. All to meet local market demands and continue to provide the growing world population with healthy food. Are you ready to push boundaries? From the office or the lab, you can step into the country to assess field trials with your own eyes. From Guatemala to Vietnam and from South Africa to Warmenhuizen: the world, but especially the challenges, are at your feet.

What I think is really cool about my job is that I contribute to new vegetable crops. We are a commercial company, but we do our bit for a better world.
What makes working at Research & Breeding challenging?
Theory versus practice
Applying research immediately in the field or greenhouse. This means your contribution will have an immediate impact on practice and contribute to improving the global food supply.
Room for personal initiative
At Bejo, we encourage personal initiative. You get plenty of opportunity to work independently and develop ideas that contribute to our mission.
Power of innovation
It is the cross-pollination of science and cutting-edge technology with patient and loving handiwork that creates new varieties. We constantly invest in research and development so that you can work with state-of-the-art equipment and technologies.
At Bejo, we do a lot of breeding work in the field.
