When it comes to buying a cereal grain cover crop, especially cereal (winter) rye, there is a temptation to choose with only price in mind.
However, be certain also that you’re buying quality seed. With CISCO, there are never any compromises when it comes to seed quality.
Our seed is sourced knowing that our customers demand and deserve the highest quality seed, not grain. Our small grains originate in regions where proper agronomic and overall quality standards are in place.
- Seed fields are monitored from planting, throughout the growing season, and at harvest to make sure there are no issues with potential weed problems or varietal purity.
- Seed is professionally conditioned, cleaned, and packaged.
- Every lot of seed is tested at harvest, and after conditioning, by independent laboratories that adhere to the approved standards
of the Association of Official Seed Analysts. We know what we have before it arrives at our warehouse. - Any mixing is done in our facility, by our team, with our equipment, which is designed to gently handle seed.
- Once tagged, rest assured it has met our rigorous standards to ensure success.
Do not take the chance of introducing new and potentially invasive (and glyphosate-resistant) weeds to your farm by buying “cheap” seed.
The tag says it all: Once the seed is in the bag, it’s a testament to our high standards.
