Hybrid rye combines numerous positive advantages in one crop : Among other things, it is sustainable in its cultivation, equipped with high yield potential, and also has great potential as a valuable feedstuff. These stand-out qualities make it the best solution for today's and future requirements in agriculture.

High productivity is the prerequisite for sustainable production of food and feedstuffs. Thanks to innovative breeding work, a one percent yield increase has been achieved with hybrid rye per year– making the yield potential of this crop even higher than that of wheat.

Hybrid rye combines maximum yield potential with low use of resources and, as a healthy feed component, it has many positive effects on the health of pigs.

An increased portion of hybrid rye in pig feed can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 20 %!

Compared to other cereals, rye combines high efficiency in nutrient uptake with less use of water and pesticides and excellent plant health. Overall that leads to the smallest CO2 footprint among cereals.

Hybrid Rye saves the valuable resource water. It's deep root system can supply the plant with water even during long hot periods.

Modern hybrid rye varieties are robust and less susceptible to ergot. The increased pollen shedding notably strengthens ergot defense and thus helps to ensure lasting plant health as well as consistently high yield potential.

Healthy and nutrient-efficient with stable yields and good drought tolerance: All these future-oriented properties mean KWS hybrid rye varieties play an important role among crops. Already today, hybrid rye supports the climate-related sustainability goals formulated by the United Nations. On a European level, meanwhile, the implementation of legislative requirements, such as those of the European Union’s “Green Deal” and the “Farm-to-Fork” strategy, poses important challenges for the entire agricultural sector – and here, too, hybrid rye can make a valuable contribution.
