Tozer Seeds were responsible for the introduction of sweetcorn to the UK market in the early 1940’s, when the company’s first breeder Dr. Dermot Dawson, bred and promoted the first hybrid variety suitable for the UK climate. Today we no longer actively breed sweetcorn but instead conduct extensive trials of the best varieties from the USA. In conjunction with the world’s leading sweetcorn breeder we are currently conducting a major product development programme. This work concentrates on producing better tasting cobs with superior eating quality. These new varieties we have named ‘Extra -Tender’ and are sure to prove popular both eaten raw like an apple as well as cooked.

Because Sweetcorn is bred in the USA in conditions which are generally more favourable to production than the UK it is important that Tozer screens all new material to assess suitability. Generally we will screen up to 400 new breeding lines, plus we carry out smaller trials of semi-commercial lines with selected growers. If you would like to become part of this process please contact us for further information.
We currently have several of our varieties on trial with NIAB. The NIAB sweetcorn trial takes place in Cambridge and is due to be assessed on the 8th Sept. If you would like to attend this trial please contact Bruce Napier for further information.
