DONMARIO comes to the U.S. with almost 40 years of industry shaping experience and proven success, from South America to South Africa. In fact, DONMARIO is a leading brand in five of the six largest soybean producing countries.
In addition, DONMARIO sister brands have over 30% soybean market share in Brazil and are a significant force in Europe. This makes the genetic foundation behind DONMARIO one of the most dominant anywhere on the globe.
No brand has success on this scale without becoming an expert in several key areas. Like systematically creating elite genetics. Putting your customer and their success first. And meticulously breeding and developing genetics locally – where they’ll eventually be commercially planted. This is exactly how DONMARIO has approached soybeans in the US.
We began testing varieties in the U.S. in 2006, with our breeding program officially launching in 2007. Fifteen years later, our focused, diligent, and sustained breeding efforts have provided elite soybean genetics developed in the U.S., for the U.S.
