In order to achieve the Wisconsin Badger State Certification of “blue tag,” each of our facilities and commercial seed lots are inspected and tested each year. The potatoes themselves must pass three inspections; a field inspection, a harvest inspection, and a post-harvest laboratory test. These USDA standard inspections help ensure our crop is healthy and high quality. Weeding out disease, pest infestation, and visible variance from the start is crucial to ensuring a successful seed crop for our customers.
