Timely availability of seed testing results is a must in today’s highly competitive seed industry.

This is no more true than in the busy Autumn period when the rush is on for seed companies to move their new season seed from seed processing stores to their vast networks of wholesale and retail outlets across the nation and ultimately to the farmer user.

A saving in testing turnaround times of as little as two or three days at this time of the season can make all the difference between making a sale or losing it - or at the very least maintaining the goodwill of seed purchasers.

With our highly expert team of six analysts and two germination administration officers – with a cumulative experience of 160 years in testing seed – we pride ourselves on our outstanding and efficient test turn around times.

At this time of the season we commence testing the great majority of samples within two to three days of sample receipt, whereas in the less hectic July to December period many samples are tested on the day of receipt or the following day.

Apart from providing fast and accurate results our clients can also view their progressive and final analytical results via our outstanding Seeds Online web based application that can be accessed through a secure username and password.
