COSTA RICA SEEDS SOCIEDAD ANONIMA

COSTA RICA SEEDS SOCIEDAD ANONIMA specializes in the production and management of tropical soybean germplasm for agricultural research and seed enhancement programs. Their core capabilities center on controlled seed increase operations, precise plot-based planting and harvesting of genetically diverse soybean accessions, and rigorous documentation of plant performance metrics. The contractor demonstrates technical proficiency in germplasm conservation, field trial design, and seed handling protocols tailored to tropical agroecosystems. Key differentiators include expertise in maintaining genetic integrity across generations of soybean lines and executing high-throughput, plot-scale seed production under strict agronomic controls, ensuring quality germplasm for breeding and research applications. The contractor’s primary agency relationship is with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where they deliver specialized agronomic services focused on the propagation and characterization of soybean germplasm collections. Their work supports national efforts in crop resilience, genetic diversity preservation, and climate-adaptive breeding programs. The consistency of engagement suggests a trusted, recurring partnership in supporting USDA’s plant science and genetic resource stewardship missions. Their industry focus is narrowly defined by NAICS 111110—Soybean Farming—where they operate at the intersection of agricultural research and seed production. Rather than commercial-scale farming, they specialize in research-grade seed generation, serving as a critical link between gene banks and applied breeding initiatives. This positions them as a niche provider within the public-sector plant science supply chain, particularly for projects requiring precise control over genetic material. The entity is structured as an X6 corporation based in San José, with no federal certifications on record. Their geographic presence is limited to their operational location, and their government market positioning is defined by a focused, technical role in USDA’s agricultural research infrastructure, rather than broad commercial or service contracting.
