Limagrain is an international seed and agri-food group founded in the heart of France 60 years ago. It entered the Brazilian market in 2011 and is now present in over 55 countries across all continents, developing, producing, and marketing high-value seeds, backed by its long-standing expertise in plant breeding.
Its global commercial brand, LG Sementes, is recognized for its quality in Europe and North America, and aims to become one of the top five seed companies in Brazil in the near future. To achieve this goal, Limagrain continues to invest in technologies and new variety launches that help farmers produce more, better, and more sustainably.
Limagrain currently operates four fully equipped research centers in Brazil, located in strategic agricultural regions: Jataí (GO), Sorriso (MT), Londrina (PR), and Petrolina (PE).
Limagrain also operates a seed production facility in Goianésia, in the state of Goiás. This region is a key hub for corn seed production in Brazil and has received major investments to become one of the most advanced seed production units in the country.
Since 1965, we’ve chosen to live agriculture. For 60 years, we’ve been the choice of those who share the same passion. We are committed to our customers and partners, constantly seeking innovation and technology to meet the needs of Brazilian farmers. Our approach is farmer-to-farmer — driven by a passion for the land and for people. We are a French multinational cooperative. Join us in choosing agriculture and living this passion!
LG Sementes employs highly sophisticated and efficient genetic breeding methods to create high-performance hybrid corn seeds. Once developed, these hybrids go through a rigorous production process with strict quality control at every stage. This ensures that farmers receive seeds with exceptional physiological quality, capable of responding to modern technologies and delivering excellent field performance.
Guided by the vision of farmers, Limagrain passionately unlocks the best of plants to support food progress and build a sustainable future.
LG is a global leader in the use of advanced plant breeding techniques, allowing the release of seed products specifically tailored to each region’s needs, technological level, and end use.
