KWS UK - the new identity for CPB Twyford

Over the last 10-12 years, CPB Twyford and its parent company, KWS have grown together, sharing expertise and gene-pools for the benefit of European farmers.


It is an entirely logical step that these combined companies now be portrayed as one. Thus the CPB Twyford name has been replaced by that of its parent.

The reason for this is quite simple. KWS is a leading, world renowned plant breeding business with a trade mark that goes back over 120 years.

It is one that is already familiar to UK sugar beet and maize farmers most of whom are probably already growing a KWS variety somewhere on their farm. The same will quickly become the case for cereals and oilseeds.

Bringing both operations together provides a united strength of purpose. One that provides operational synergies, ensuring improved consistency in crop performance that will benefit all within the agricultural production chain.

Thus, as a UK grower, you can be assured that whatever KWS UK variety you select, it has been developed using the same professional competencies applied across all our breeding teams; a variety that is reliable, innovative and market-leading, which has been tailored and tested for the conditions and region that you farm.
