Shaping the future of asparagus

Asparagus is a unique perennial crop that requires long-term performance, consistency, and quality. At Enza Zaden, we are committed to developing innovative asparagus varieties that help growers succeed across diverse production systems and market requirements.

Our breeding programs focus on both white and green asparagus, combining agronomic performance with the quality characteristics valued throughout the supply chain. From spear appearance and uniformity to adaptability and productivity, we continuously work to deliver genetics that create value for growers and consumers alike.

As asparagus is cultivated around the world, our breeding efforts are aimed at supporting production in a wide range of environments. Alongside our established white asparagus activities, we have expanded our expertise in green asparagus genetics to serve important growing regions such as Spain, Italy, Mexico, Peru and Chile.

By combining global knowledge with a long-term breeding vision, we continue to develop asparagus varieties that meet the needs of today while helping shape the future of the crop.
