Oilseed and protein crops
The choice of high-yielding varieties that are adapted to their environment plays an essential role in the success of a crop.
Soja
Soya is a key source of protein worldwide. In the West it is used mainly as animal feed or as a high quality oil.
Alternative crops
Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)
The plant, which produces elongated tubers, has recently made it appearance in Switzerland, and is now grown by twenty or so producers.
