Sec. 112.3. Field inspection  


Latest version.
  • (a) Field inspection and designation (including all required records and official approval) must be completed before pollination of the first crop of seed to be certified. In addition, an inspection will be made of the designated stand within 90 days prior to each seed collection. At this time the inspector will make an estimate of seed production which will become the confidential information of the certifying agency.
    (b) Inspections will be required only in years in which certified seed production is planned, after the stand is designated, provided that subsequent inspections shall not be made more than five years apart.
    (c) Inspections may be made at any time during seed collection, extraction, and cleaning without prior notice.
