Han Botterhuis on Seed Valley Board
Han Botterhuis, site director Incotec Europe, has joined the Seed Valley board. He succeeds Incotec's Erik Jan Bartels. Erik Jan Bartels is still associated with seed enhancer Incotec, but is no longer a Seed Valley board member due to a wider role at parent company Croda. Han Botterhuis has been with Incotec for over seven years and is responsible for all Incotec's activities in EMEA, including its sites in Zwaagdijk and Enkhuizen and those in South Africa.
Seed Valley is the global centre for plant breeding and seed technology, located in North-Holland. In the Netherlands over 3,500 people work in Seed Valley. These are employees of all educational levels and from various fields: from research & breeding to sales and from HR to production. Every year, around 300 vacancies become available at the companies. Seed Valley's board consists of seven representatives from the seed business and education sectors. Besides Botterhuis, the members are Jeroen de Haas, Jan Willem Griep of Syngenta, Pieter Gabriels of Bejo, Jurgen Holtz of Vonk, Allison Thomas of Enza Zaden and Rick van Zoeren of Bayer.
