InterGrain’s History

InterGrain Pty Ltd was formed in October 2007 when the Western Australian State Government and the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) elected to privatise the long standing and highly successful Department of Agriculture and Food Western Australia (DAFWA) wheat breeding program, with the State Government and GRDC being the founding shareholders.

In 2009/10 the shareholders saw the opportunity to expand the InterGrain business by transferring the barley breeding program from DAFWA to InterGrain, a program that had been delivering productive varieties to WA growers for over 50 years.

Seedclub

InterGrain markets their own wheat and barley varieties and has appointed a number of seed processors called Seedclub members. Seedclub members have the rights to produce, sell and distribute seed of new and future wheat and barley varieties to growers and agricultural resellers. InterGrain prides itself on breeding varieties which provide long lasting productivity gains for farmers and works closely with Seedclub members to produce high quality seed for supply to Australian growers.
