Description

Mas Seeds is one of the leading European seed manufacturers for corn and oilseeds with a turnover of 200 million euros and 700 employees. With 70 years of experience in the seed business, we offer genetic innovations, high-quality seeds, and comprehensive services for farmers.

Mas Seeds is a division of the Maisadour Group, headquartered in southwestern France. The Maisadour Group has a global presence, with 5,400 employees generating an annual turnover of 5.4 billion euros.

The main focus of the research and development department at MAS SEEDS is corn breeding, and in Germany, we test thousands of plots of grain and silage corn in the fields. We work hard to offer farmers new varieties that meet their requirements: a good balance between plant yield, agronomic performance, feed value, and maximum resistance to biotic and abiotic stress factors. We believe in the power of breeding to adapt varieties to climate change and more environmentally friendly agriculture.

Seasonal workers are needed for the period from April to November, with variable workloads during this time.
