The Enterprise Breeding System transforms crop breeding by offering a single data management system that digitalizes the breeding process. Our development approach champions the needs of breeding teams and collaborators through a systematic gathering of their feedback and requests.
These inputs are evaluated and prioritized—informing the scope and objectives of the upcoming milestones and sprints. Each domain’s dedicated set of developers deliver the requested improvements on a regular basis, after sufficient quality testing. Below is a timeline of how EBS has evolved since it was launched in 2019.
