Applications Products Philosophy News & Blog Contact Agronomy: our core and passion At SVZ, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, tasty fruit and vegetable ingredients for our partners. Producing premium purees, juices and NFC juices requires a deep understanding of agronomy – the science and technology of agriculture. That’s why we have a dedicated team of expert agronomists working in the fields all year round, ensuring that every fruit or vegetable that travels along the supply chain meets specific customer and legislative standards. Whether you need an ingredient with a specific colour, texture or nutrient profile, it’s our agronomy team – in combination with university research centres and specialist seed breeders – that makes these dreams a reality. This means we can ensure that our ingredients are tailored to your exact requirements – so your final products not only taste great, but deliver in terms of nutrition, mouthfeel and appearance. CONTACT US What do our agronomists do? The role is diverse – from supporting our partner farmers year-round to trialling different ingredient varieties and providing regulatory advice, their work is constantly evolving. A key focus is to ensure that all processed ingredients are as safe, consistent and high-quality as possible, which means continuous monitoring, observing and reporting – as well as soil composition analysis. The agronomy team also works on creating tailored ingredient solutions that meet our customers’ exact requirements – whether that involves selecting the optimal fruit seed or ensuring very specific levels of a nutrient in a vegetable ingredient. Whatever the request, we harness the power of science to meet your expectations. SEED SELECTION Premium fruit and vegetable ingredients all start with high-quality seeds. Our agronomy team ensures that the seeds we use are healthy and fully traceable, to guarantee cultivation of only the most successful crops.
