Seed Tags

Description:

Three basic types of tags can be found on PM LABELS

Certification tags

Analysis tags

Treat tags

It is important that the producer retains the tags from each lot of planting seed.

Certification Tags

PM LABELS begins with high-quality planting seed. Standards may vary from crop to crop, but a certification tag seed is the symbol of quality. It assures the purchaser that the seed variety stated and it has met the standards for germination and purity.

Each class of certified seed is associated with a colored seed tag. Certified seed tags are blue, registered are purple, and foundation tags are white. Information provided on the certification tag includes a class of certification, kind of crop, variety, lot number, and name and address of the owner. The certification class is stated and color-coded.

Analysis of Tags

All seed sold must have an analysis tag. Some certification tags also contain the analysis, but others contain only the basic information and there must be a separate analysis tag attached to the bag. The analysis tag that accompanies the certification tag provides information on the quality factors of the crop seed. A grower should read both labels to determine whether the seed meets his purity and germination requirements.

Treat Bags

When seeds are treated with poisonous substances such as fungicides or insecticides, the law requires that labeled to indicate this treatment. The treat tag will note the treatment used.

Many agricultural seeds companies are required to have custom seed tags on their products. It is imperative that your seed tags be durable and effectively communicate those details. Our custom seed tags fulfill these needs, allowing for a large variety of the required disclosure information in an easily readable format.
