Seed
Due to our location on the Darling Downs, we have experience with and facilities to test seed of both tropical and temperate species in our NATA Accredited laboratory.
These include broad acre crops, horticultural or vegetable crops, pastures, flowers and Australian native species. We define “seed” as seeds that are intended to be sown.
The following tests are appropriate for seed:

- Weed Seed Search and Identification
