ldaho Seed Certification Program
The ldaho Seed Certification Pro- gram provides basic seed stock of new and exisrng varieries developed through public and private breeding programs for distribution to growers through a limlted-generation system of Certified Seed.
The purpose of the certification pro- gram is to ensure that seed sources meet standards for genetic purity, ger- mination, other crop and weed contami- nation, and are free of certair. diseases. Seed lots having certified tags have been field inspected and laboratory tested so that growers can be confident that the crop planted has ihe potential lo meet quality and pro- duction expectations.
T ie process of ceftifying seed re- quires the combined effort and coop eration of the University of Idaho, the ldaho Crop Improvement Association. and the ldaho State Depanment of Ag- riculture. Each agency and organization serves a specific purpose in ensuring that seed stocks meet standards at ev- ery level and generation ieacing to Cer- tified Seed.
It is important to know the levels of Ilmited-generation seed production In order to understand the process. These are summanzed below:
Breeder Seed Breeder Seed is the original seed of
a variety that the plant breeder or au- thorized expert verified as the genome selection. This seed primarily is usad to produce Founoation Seed. Breeder Seed of public varieties 1s maintained
arm controlled by the idaho Agricultural Exoeriment Statton and the Foundatlon Seed Program.
Foundation Seed Foundation Seed (whiie tag) is prog-
eny of Breeder Seed. The production of Foundation Seed of public varieties in ldaho is the responsibility of the idaho Agricultural Experiment Station and its designees. Foundation Seed of public varieties is allocated by the ldaho Crop lmprovement Association and distrib- uted through the University of ldaho Agricultural Research and Extension Centers.
Registerecl Seed Registered Seed (purple tag) is the
progeny of Breeder or Foundation Seed. The Registered Seed class may be eliminated for some crops in order to maintain quality standards. Regis- tered Seed is available through ap- proved dealers and growers throughout the state.
Certified Seed Certified Seed (blue tagj is the prog-
eny of Breeder. Foundation. or Regis- tered Seed classes depending on crop species. Certified Seed is available through approved dealers and growers throughout the state.
ldaho Agricultural Experiment Station
ldaho Agricultural Experiment Sta- tion (IAES) of the Unrversily of ldaho has been des~gnated as the organiza- tion responsible for maintainlng and producing a source of qualily seed for ldano growers. Thus, the Foundation Seed Program wlthin IAES is the basic component of the seed program in Idaho.
The program rncludes the develop ment and maintenance of Breeder Seed of ldaho released varieties and production of Foundation Seed for vari- eties developed in ldaho or other
states. The goat of the Foundation Seed Program is to make high qualiy basic seed stocks available to ldaho crop producers througn a iimited-gen- eration production system.
ldaho Crop lmprovement Association
The ldaho Crop Improvement Asso- ciation (ICIA) is operated through the Executtve Secretary-Manager and a seven-member Board of Directors elected from grower members. The As- sociation, through a Memorandum of Understanding wth the Universrty d ldaho Board of Regents, is authorized to carry out the responsibility of enforc- ing the ldaho Certification Rules and Fegulations that provide certificabon stanaards.
