Organic plant breeding aims to develop crop varieties without using chemicals. It focuses on creating varieties that are well-adapted to organic farming systems and resistant to biotic and abiotic stresses without the use of pesticides. Organic varieties are developed and tested exclusively under organic conditions. The objectives of organic plant breeding include improving competitiveness against weeds, quality over yield, biodiversity, and resistance to stresses. Common breeding techniques include selection, hybridization and plant introduction, but GMOs, radiation, and synthetic chemicals are prohibited.
