Özaltın Tarım ||AGRICULTURE IS LIFE
We started our R&D activities in 2004 with cotton seed breeding in the field crops product group. All our studies continue with nationally supported Tübitak projects. We use University-Industry-Public Sector cooperation effectively in our studies. In this context, we work effectively in internalizing information with all subject experts, accompanied by our consultants with 3 academic titles from different universities and 1 PhD or higher from the public sector. We currently have 7 completed and ongoing Tübitak supported projects. We have more than 20 technical personnel involved in R&D activities. We direct our breeding activities depending on current needs. In 2007, our company was registered as a “Private Sector Research Organization” by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and in 2018, it was registered as an “R&D Center” by the Ministry of Industry and Technology. As a result of our activities, we have a highly secure gene bank containing more than 3000 genotypes with different characteristics close to the variety stage. In the last two years, we have added wheat seed breeding and Organomineral Fertilizer development studies to our cotton seed breeding activities.
