We are saline-farming!

In connection with the development in 2019, the companies that fall under Saline-Farming (Ziltproefbedrijf/Salt Farm Texel, Marc. Foods and Waddenwier) are undergoing reorganisation, as a result of which part of the activities can be restarted.

Research and development: Research about saline agriculture carried out by Ziltproefbedrijf/Salt Farm Texel will be continued by Salt Farm Foundation. In recent years, we have made great progress in making salt-tolerant crops usable in Europe and the rest of the world. Salt Farm Foundation in the coming period will focus on processing the data developed in the past and make it available for the farmers and various knowledge partners in the Netherlands and around the world.

Seaweed production and valorization: Waddenwier will be focusing on the development and regional sales of seaweed and salt-tolerant/halophytic plants grown on land  (Texel). Since 2020, Waddenwier has made its products available to consumers and HORECA industry throughout the Netherlands. Visit our webshop - Zeewier van Texel | Waddenwier
