Want to know more about how to get the most out of your seed?

Join TasSeed Manager Doug Clark, Tasmanian Seed Potato Certification Scheme and PotatoLink regional representative, Tim Walker for a workshop on getting the most out of your seed.

Come along to see a rundown of the national seed potato certification scheme and its Tasmanian appendix.

A hands-on session on tuber inspection, identification of pest and diseases will be followed by a round table discussion of any industry seed issues.

Guest speaker Frank Mulcahy will discuss his recent trip to the USA and their experiences with Potato Virus Y. 

This is a great opportunity to ask seed certifiers questions and see the process of certifying a line of seed potatoes.
