Superior Seed, Superior Yield
Improving agriculture, improving lives.

Who is SACTA?

SACTA is committed to ensure food security through the development of new
genetics and technology for open-pollinated crops.

The South African Cultivar and Technology Agency (SACTA) was created as the
legitimate central institution which administers the breeding levies for all
self-pollinated grain and oilseed crops, specifically wheat, barley, soya beans
and some canola cultivars.

SACTA believes that all cultivars should offer a healthy balance between yield
and quality so that all parties in the value chain benefit. The system is driven
by the free market, dedicated by demand. Currently South Africa imports more
than 50% of our wheat and there is not enough investment in new breeding
programmes.

Why SACTA?

Sustainable agriculture and food security go hand in hand. The sustainable
production of certain self-pollinated crops such as wheat, barley, oats and
soybeans depend on the continuous development and introduction of new seed
varieties and, if applicable, new bio-technology.

Statutory levies for the purpose of plant breeding and new technologies in these
crops have to be administered responsibly. SACTA was established in 2016 with
the specific purpose of administrating the levy.

The statutory levy system for breeding and technology of self-pollinated crops
and SACTA as a dedicated administration company, has proven to be quite unique
worldwide.
