The American Seed Trade Association recently launched a redesigned, updated guide that allows farmers, landowners and others to easily locate and contact professional seed suppliers for quality environmental, conservation and cover crop seed. The interactive Conservation, Environmental, and Cover Crop Seed Resource Guide allows buyers to find lists of specific seed types by geographic location to support production and sustainability goals.

“[M]anaging the use of the right seed, at the right place, at the right time” helps farmers meet their production and sustainability goals, according to ASTA President and CEO Andy LaVigne.
