SUMMARY:State of Organic Seed
DESCRIPTION:Join eOrganic and the Organic Seed Alliance to hear the results of the 2022 State of Organic Seed survey! The webinar takes place on Tuesday\, May 17th at 11 AM Pacific\, 12 Mountain\, 1 Central\, 2 Eastern Time\, and it’s free and open to the public. Advance registration is required. Presenters are Kiki Hubbard and Jared Zystro of the Organic Seed Alliance. \nJoin OSA’s Kiki Hubbard and Jared Zystro\, and host eOrganic\, for a timely webinar on May 17\, 2022. Organic seed represents the first link in the organic supply chain\, serving as the foundation of organic integrity from seed to plate. Every five years\, OSA releases the State of Organic Seed report as a progress report and action plan for increasing the organic seed supply while fostering seed grower networks and policies that aim to decentralize power and ownership in seed systems. OSA recently published a third update to this report. The 2022 report represents 15 years of data that helps the organic community understand trends in organic seed sourcing\, organic seed research investments\, and more. \nThere was very little organic seed available when the National Organic Program (NOP) was implemented in 2002. Twenty years later\, the organic seed supply has grown tremendously\, and certified organic growers are still required to plant organic seed when commercially available. OSA’s newest findings show that most organic growers still plant non-organic seed for at least part (if not all) of their operations. While there’s evidence that organic seed sourcing is increasing among smaller vegetable producers\, progress across crop types is generally stagnant. In other words\, OSA’s most recent findings demonstrate no meaningful improvement in organic producers using more organic seed compared to five years ago. \n  \nThis webinar will share the report’s findings and recommendations\, which are informed by numerous surveys and data sets. Webinar topics include: \n\nTrends in how much organic seed is being planted in the U.S.\nBarriers to growing the organic seed supply\nChallenges in enforcing the organic seed regulation\nOrganic seed production challenges and needs\nOrganic seed producer networks\nInvestments in organic plant breeding and organic seed research\nPerspectives on intellectual property rights (IPR)\nPerspectives on climate change\nOrganic seed policy solutions\n\nThe 2022 State of Organic Seed report can be found at this link.
