Abstract

Plant breeding research on agricultural crops in the Netherlands is described. A generally high level of breeding can be expected, when there is close cooperation between free research in a university department, directed research in an institute (based on a program planned to produce practical results), and private plant breeders. The increasing activities and efficiency of private breeders call for more basic research and more help on a higher level. Therefore long term programs of the Foundation for Agricultural Plant Breeding (S.V.P.) are necessary to point out to all interested groups in which direction research may be expected to go in the coming period. For long term programs private breeders know in which parts of their work the S.V.P. is supposed to help them.
