PUBLISHED DESCRIPTION

What the notice says

The aim of the project is to provide data to enable a review of the current policy that prohibits the marketing of farm saved seed and consider whether the evidence supports this policy continuing, or if other policies could be considered, such as allowing farmers to exchange farm saved seed (as proposed in the EU). Contract awarded by Defra.
