				  class of certified seed which is the progeny of breeder or foundation seed and
				  is produced and handled under procedures established by the certifying agency,
				  in accordance with this Part, for producing the registered class of seed, for
				  the purpose of maintaining genetic purity and identity.
(d) Certified seed. Certified seed is a class
				  of certified seed which is the progeny of breeder, foundation, or registered
				  seed, except as provided in section
				  96.4 
				  of this Part, and is produced and handled under procedures established by the

(b) The production of an additional
				  generation of the certified class may be permitted on a one year basis only,
				  when an emergency is declared by any official seed certifying agency stating
				  that the foundation and registered seed supplies are not adequate to plant the
				  needed certified acreage of the variety. The additional generation of certified
				  seed to meet the emergency need is ineligible for recertification.

				  certification requirements in respect to variety purity, but failing to meet
				  other standards, may be certified. The conditions under which seed is certified
				  shall be prescribed jointly by the certifying agency and the commissioner.
				  Seeds so certified shall be tagged with a green certification tag which shall
				  clearly show the class of certified seed and the respects in which the seed to
				  which it is attached does not meet regular certification standards. No seed
				  shall be certified under this provision under conditions which will be
				  injurious to the reputation of the certified seed.
(b) Foundation and registered seed failing to
				  meet certification standards other than those affecting genetic purity may be
				  identified as approved planting stock for the production of certified seed in

				  inadequate to meet demands for planting stock due to fire, drought or other
				  disaster, the certifying agency in consultation with the Department of
				  Agriculture and Markets shall be authorized to locate, purchase and distribute
				  as "approved planting stock" any appropriate and suitable seed.

(a) The general
				  seed certification standards are basic and together with the following specific
				  standards constitute the standards for certification of birdsfoot
				  trefoil.
(b) Section
				  96.3 
				  of the general standards is amplified as follows to apply specifically to
				  birdsfoot trefoil seed: Classes and sources of certified seed:
(1) The region of adaptation of Empire and
				  Viking birdsfoot trefoil shall be New York State and all other States and
				  portions thereof located between the Canadian boundary and the 40th parallel
				  except in the extreme west where the southern boundary shall be the
				  California-Oregon State line.
(2)
				  When a variety is grown outside its designated region of adaptation,
				  certification shall be limited to one generation. The class thus produced shall
				  be the certified class.
(3) When
				  the Empire and Viking varieties of birdsfoot trefoil are grown within the
				  region of adaptation, certification shall be limited to three generations of
				  increase from breeder seed. The three generations shall be foundation,
				  registered and certified. Certified seed shall not be eligible as planting
				  stock for the growing of certified seed.

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a)
				  Foundation seed for the production of registered seed shall be planted on land
				  on which no birdsfoot trefoil except the same variety and class of certified
				  seed was grown or planted during the five years prior to the one in which the
				  present stand was planted. During the year immediately prior to seeding, the
				  land shall have been in a cultivated crop and the land shall be free from
				  volunteer plants. No manure or other contaminating amendments shall be applied
				  during established and productive life of the stand.
(b) Registered or foundation seed for the
				  production of certified seed shall be planted on land on which no birdsfoot
				  trefoil, except seed of the same variety which is eligible for certification,
				  has been grown or planted during the three years prior to the one in which the
				  present stand was planted. During the year immediately prior to seeding, the
				  land shall have been in a cultivated crop and the land must be free from
				  volunteer plants. No manure or other contaminating amendments shall be applied
				  during established and productive life of the stand.

(a) A
				  field inspection will be made at the time that offtypes and varietal admixtures
				  can most readily be detected.
(b)
				  Each grower shall file with the manager's office of the certifying agency a
				  farm map showing separate fields, properly identified, together with a record
				  of each field showing the date of planting, seed used, and other pertinent
				  information. In the case of a field being entered in the certification program
				  for the first time, a complete history for five years previous to birdsfoot
				  trefoil planting shall be given. Each grower must keep a duplicate up-to-date
				  farm map showing separate seed fields as a guide to proper identification for
				  certification purposes and chronological history of the fields. The grower's
				  copy shall be made available to the inspector.
