The Cooperative Society of Breeders (ASS) achieved a turnover of 18.336 million francs during its 2023-2024 financial year. A result down 1.8% compared to the previous financial year, which is mainly explained by the sharp drop in sales of plants due to the very poor harvest of 2023, particularly of potatoes, leading to insufficient availability. After depreciation and provisions amounting to 366,489 francs, the approximately 200 members gathered in Yverdon-les-Bains validated an operating profit of 7,561 francs.
