About Us - Rijk Zwaan Australia

Sales |
| Rijk Zwaan Australia sells seed of varieties developed by its group companies. Rijk Zwaan Australia has a policy of selling directly to the end user (grower or seedling nursery). However, in some areas local factors are such that the market is serviced better through local distributors. The Australian sales organisation consists of technical representatives located in the major growing regions of Australia.
In this website you can find information about our varieties for Australia and New Zealand and how to grow them. For technical backup you can contact our trained and experienced Technical Sales Staff. They are able to draw on a wealth of experience through access to the Rijk Zwaan worldwide network of technical advisers. |

Research and Development |

Rijk Zwaan Australia supports the international RZ breeding programs through providing continued variety evaluation during the Northern hemisphere off season. Rijk Zwaan Australia co-operates with local public plant breeders and researchers on issues specific to Australia.
