On the basis of public authority granted by MAFF, IHPS performs certification of seed crops (cereals, fodder, beet, oil rape and fiber plants) and seed potatoes. The suppliers of seed crops and seed potato must log in each year within the period prescribed in the official confirmation if they wish all the requisite checks, visual inspections and official testing to be carried out, and for the produced seed to receive official labels, plant passport and an official certificate of approval.
