Upcoming Federal
Seed Schools
May 10-14 & August 16-20, 2010
Gastonia, NC
The Seed Regulatory and
Testing Branch will host two Federal Seed Schools this
year at our facility in Gastonia, NC, May 10-14, and
August 16-20, 2010. The first three days of both of these
seed schools will focus on purity and identification of
similar crop and weed species, with emphasis on
identification of noxious-weed seeds. Other topics such
as the uniform blowing procedure and ryegrass fluorescence
will be covered. The last two days of the week will focus
on variety testing, including trait testing, and seed
health testing such as detection of seed treatments by
bioassay methods, depending upon the interest of the
participants.
These seed schools are open
to seed analysts from private and government seed testing
laboratories. Presentation of topics will be on a level
appropriate for experienced seed analysts. Enrollment at
each of the seed schools will be limited to 20
participants due to the hands-on nature of the topics and
one-on-one attention from the instructors. Participants
from non-government laboratories will be charged a fee of
$160 ($32 per day).
For more information about
these seed schools or to request a pre-registration sheet,
please contact Botanist Pattsy Jackson at
pattsy.jackson@ams.usda.gov or Laboratory
Supervisor Susan Maxon at
susan.maxon@ams.usda.gov.
Seed grader and/or quality
management training may also be available the last two
days of each week if there is sufficient interest. For
information on cost and registration for seed grader
training or quality management training, please contact
Perry Bohn at
