To generate knowledge which boosts the Basque agri-food sector.
The Basque natural environment is one of our most important assets for achieving a unified, developed and prosperous society in terms of food health, sustainability, economic efficiency and respect for the environment. The mission commended to NEIKER since its creation more than a century ago, precisely consists of generating scientific knowledge and solutions helping to maintain this historical deep-rootedness shared by the Basque Country and its agri-food sector in order that it will remain one of the bases of our wealth and welfare.
