In the context of accelerating the revitalization of the seed industry in the agricultural field, Veegoo Agriculture has become a new force to promote the development of agricultural modernization by virtue of its outstanding contributions to the protection of sweet potato germplasm resources and the detoxification and breeding of sweet potato.
Veegoo Agriculture is a high-tech enterprise focusing on the sweet potato industry, which has adhered to its original intention for 20 years, led the development of the seed industry with science and technology, built its own detoxification breeding center, virus molecular testing laboratory, set up a scientific research team, established a sweet potato research institute, and successfully realized the direct use of test-tube seed potatoes for production. This technical advantage not only ensures the quality of seed potatoes, but also promotes the increase of farmers' production and income. Every year, Veegoo Agriculture sends a large number of high-quality seed potatoes to the national market, with an annual supply of more than 36 million catties, which not only meets the market demand, but also provides strong support for ensuring food security supply.
In order to further improve the supply capacity of high-quality seed potatoes, Veegoo Agriculture pioneered the national chain seedling breeding and service model, and adopted the franchise method to achieve large-scale supply. In 2023, Veegoo Agriculture has 33 chain seedling and service bases, and its seed potato sales have been leading for many years, becoming a veritable leader in the detoxified sweet potato seed potato industry.
Seeds are the foundation of agricultural modernization. In terms of variety research and development and germplasm resource protection, Veegoo Agriculture also spares no effort. The three sweet potato varieties "Veegoo No. 2", "Veegoo 100" and "Zijing No. 2" developed by Veegoo Agriculture have been registered with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, among which the raw material of the company's brand 52 degrees is "Veegoo No. 2", which is deeply loved by consumers with its high sweetness of 52 degrees and soft and sweet taste, becoming a representative variety of high-end fresh potatoes and creating a new chapter in the high-end sweet potato industry.
At the same time, Veegoo Agriculture has a respectful and important attitude towards the research and development of new varieties. In 2023, Veegoo Agriculture successfully reached a "Sweet Potato Breeding Agreement" with the Institute of Food Crops of Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and the research and development of a number of new sweet potato varieties is ongoing. In addition, Veegoo Agriculture respects the intellectual property rights of new varieties and has continued to purchase the right to use the three main varieties of "Yanshu 25", "Jishu 26" and "Pushu 32" for many years.
In the variety "Tobacco Potato 25", Veegoo Agriculture is not only the first batch of authorized units, but also has been authorized for 8 consecutive years, which is enough to prove that Veegoo Agriculture has made efforts in the protection of sweet potato varieties. Last year, Veegoo Agriculture actively exerted its influence and drove its chain seedling and service bases to license the variety "Tobacco Potato 25". This initiative not only demonstrates Veegoo Agriculture's respect for and protection of variety rights, but also further promotes the healthy development of the sweet potato industry.
With the continuous development of Veegoo Agriculture in the field of seed industry, the company is gradually establishing a Veegoo sweet potato seed germplasm resource bank. At present, Veegoo's resource bank has more than 50 sweet potato varieties and hundreds of sweet potato strains. This large number of conserved resources means that Veegoo Agriculture needs to invest heavily in germplasm conservation every year. As the "chip" of the seed industry, germplasm resources are an indispensable and important cornerstone for the revitalization of the seed industry. In this regard, Mr. Zhang Qingliang, Chairman of Veegoo Agriculture, has always firmly supported and continued to increase investment, showing the responsibility and responsibility that entrepreneurs should have, and taking multiple measures to help the revitalization of the seed industry.
At present, the continuous optimization of the innovation environment of the seed industry provides a broader development space for practical enterprises such as Veegoo Agriculture. In the future, Veegoo Agriculture will continue to uphold the innovation-driven and quality-oriented development concept, actively respond to the call of the country, keep the bottom line of food security, and draw a new chapter in the revitalization of the seed industry!
