| Description: |
The Certification Program is a service of the College of Agricultural Sciences administered through the Oregon State University Extension Service. Certification is divided into two projects. The Foundation Seed and Plant Materials Project is responsible for making available sufficient improved planting stock to insure a continuous supply of early generation material for later increase by Oregon growers engaged in the certification program. The Certification Project is responsible for maintaining the pedigree of superior varieties under a generation system by appropriate inspection and records to insure that genetically pure varieties are produced under the Oregon Certification program. County agricultural Extension Agents are the certification representatives within counties. Certification requests are filed in the county where the crop is grown. |
