OSC Expert Here For Certification Of ValleyCrops Seed Certification ' Expert H. E. Finnell, Oregon State college, is now in the Rogue river valley for certifying various valley crops, according to W. B.Tucker, county agent in agriculture. This is Finnell's second trip in a month. Tucker explained that this trip he will certify ladino clover, finished grains and alfalfa. There are about 1,000 acres of ladino entered for inspection and about 2,000 acres of certi fied alfalfa. The agent pointed out that certification is classified into four groups under the Na tional Crop Improvement pro gram for alfalfa. The first grouping is called the foundation, class, consisting of the first generation or breed er's seed; the registered class Is next, which includes the third generation; and the certified blue tag group is the fourth gen eration. A fourth grouping is the "between the Qsses of the same variety." After 1952, all new valley plantings must be of a higher grade, according to Tucker, and fall in one of the four categor ies listed. This is necessary, he related, to keep the seed "of a higher purity intact." The grow ers must make every effort to secure foundation or registered seed, he continued, as after it has been classified -ertified blue tag, it will have to be classed uncertified in successive years, because of the danger of cross breeding. The agent also noted that the foundation classification, or breeder's seed, does not apply to ladino clover as certified seeds are the only ones available. A foundation class will be started he added, as soon as the seed is available.
