Barenbrug Group

We are committed to our mission to contribute to feeding the world sustainably and enhancing green spaces. Our products are green, but their potential to make our world even greener is immense. We focus on creating sustainable solutions at every step, in our R&D and seed enhancement, on our production fields, in our operations, all the way through our distribution and services. Practice makes perfect! Globally, 75% of the energy we use is already renewable and we aim this to be 100% by 2026. In New Zealand, we've reduced our plastic consumption by 30% and are committed to being part of an accredited recycling scheme for packaging waste. Our LED lighting is not only energy efficient, but it also rocks a pink-tastic glow and helps our green pals grow! We boost biodiversity by Barenbrug's Happy Lawn® Grass Technology, that combines mowable flowers with a resilient lawn. And with Barenbrug's Nutriherb, farmers can realize a high feed value whilst increasing soil health.

Barenbrug is committed to contributing to increasing productivity and improving sustainability through global innovations. A great example, which has been used for some time, is Barenbrug Australia's blend of forage oats and ryegrass. This blend is more than just a combination of seeds, it creates synergy between two known species and our science proves the theory. Our research data show that it is capable of transforming common fields into efficient forage production and growth. It is a story of how integrating just 20% ryegrass with oats can unlock nutritional benefits, leading to significant improvements in animal performance. Imagine cattle reaching their weight goals faster, healthier and more sustainably thanks to improved forage quality and quantity. The research also shows a significant increase in yields, promising not only a bountiful harvest, but also an impressive return on investment for farmers. It is an invitation that paves the way for an agricultural future where productivity and environmental stewardship go hand in hand.

🌸💕 Happy Mother's Day 💕🌸 To all the incredible mothers and mother figures out there, thank you for being the roots that anchor us, the sunshine that brightens our days, and the wind beneath our wings. You deserve all the love and appreciation in the world. 💐 We also thank Mother Nature for the wonderful gift of grass. It provides a soft, comforting blanket for family picnics, a lush playground for our children, a vibrant carpet that adds beauty to our living environment and a comfortable playing surface for all sports-loving moms. 💚🌿

Joseph Theodorus Barenbrug, the founder of Barenbrug, was so passionate about grass that he published the booklet 'Money in Grasses' as early as 1908. This was also published for the US market at the time. Today, we still strive to provide high-yielding and resilient grass solutions to our farmers around the world to maximise the productivity and profitability of their farms. For every climate and its challenges, we offer profitable innovations in grasses, cover crops and legumes to sustainably feed the world. #120anniversaryBarenbrug
