**RESPONSIBILITIES**
Within BASF Seed and Traits R&D, plant cultivation refers to the growth of plants and the production of quality seeds in greenhouses and growth chambers.

The group operates and carries this responsibility at multiple locations around Ghent.

Plant Cultivation aims at being highly experienced and predictable in workflow-based operational organization towards mínimal cost and timelines, while also ensuring required quality, both at the level of purity as well as at the level of Plant Genetic Integrity. Plant Cultivation also aims at being state-of-the-art by identifying, developing, and implementing latest technology and infrastructure. Plant Cultivation is embedded in a research department that focuses on trait design, creation, and testing, and supports the testing of genetic engineering, genome editing and mutagenesis-based traits.

- Location: Astene, Bottelare and Zwijnaarde.
