Maïsadour

From Maïsadour Semences to MAS Seeds

MAS Seeds is the seed division of Maïsadour Group. Here is a great story and our know-how.

A History

The seed branch of Maïsadour Group was created in 1949, a few years after the creation of the farmers co-operative in 1936 in south-west of France. The ambition was strong: create, produce and supply high-quality maize hybrids to a fast expanding French market. An ambition that has been far overreached 80 years later.

Nowadays, Maïsadour Semences has become an international seed company with activities not only in maize but also sunflower, oilseed rape, Lucerne and many others. With these new challenging ambitions, the brand needed a new name and a new face, still attached to its history but better suited to the international platform and corresponding to our diverse business activities.
