Anjouère SEV Unit

Anjouère SEV Unit

GEVES’s Anjouère Experimental Unit conducts variety testing for field crop species.

Station Activities

GEVES’s Anjouère Experimental Unit is responsible for variety testing of field crop species, in liaison with two other SEV stations in Le Magneraud and Montpellier. It carries out testing which is required for:

  • Registering and protecting varieties of field species
  • Seed certification

Experts who work at this station play a key role in the evolution of protocols and testing methods at national and international levels, through their collaboration with organisations such as the CTPS, the CPVO and UPOV, and also through methodological research projects which are conducted at the station.
