Approval as a private field inspector for seed multiplication areas - application.

Service Description

The production of seed takes place on so-called propagation plots. The plants on the propagation plots (field stock) must meet certain requirements specified in the Seed Ordinance. Accordingly, each propagation area must be inspected in the year of seed production before the seed is harvested to ensure that the requirements for the field stock (varietal identity, varietal purity, foreign planting and health status) are met. For this purpose, the competent authority (certification body) may approve private field inspectors. The certification authority must additionally inspect at least 5 out of 100 of these areas and revoke the certification if this has been carried out repeatedly and inadequately (§7 Para. 7 - 9 Seed Ordinance).
