Syngenta will also utilise this investment to secure long-term R&D investments in strategic crops

Syngenta Vegetable Seeds will invest an additional €2,4 million ($2.7 M) to research and development centres in Spain. The investment in its El Ejido R&D Centre will allow Syngenta to further develop and deploy new technologies, aiming to enhance product performance using digital tools, analytics, and data science.

Syngenta will also utilise this investment to secure long-term R&D investments in strategic crops and fast-track the development process required to sustain the launch of commercial products that serve customers in over 100 countries.

As a part of this investment, a new farm in the Torre Pacheco area will offer greater automation and digitization, enabling quicker adoption of new technologies to pioneer and set novel benchmarks for plant breeding.
