The organic farmers’ own seed system
Landsorten was established in 2021 and is a Danish organization that develops and disseminates new and old organic cereal varieties with special qualities for food and people.
More than 25 years of breeding work by selected researchers — primarily the Danish researcher Anders Borgen of Agrologica — form the foundation for Landsorten’s current portfolio of more than 50 different organic cereal varieties.
Landsorten is an association with 140 members, mainly organic farmers, mills, distilleries, and bakeries that grow and process the cereal varieties.
Landsorten is responsible for maintaining varietal purity and coordinates the multiplication of high-quality seed in collaboration with its member growers.
Landsorten also promotes awareness of the varieties among end users in the market.
