Seed of the Year is an initiative recognizing plant breeders. Through the program’s application process, breeders are encouraged to highlight their research accomplishments in developing a new variety of field crops, forages, fruits, vegetables and herbs.
Applications from across Canada will be considered. Nominations will remain on file for three years and be re-nominated automatically and reviewed for consideration as a Seed of the Year finalist.
Get your application in by Oct. 31, 2022. This year’s winner will be announced at the Seeds Canada Virtual Semi-Annual Meeting in November.
