Both Cotswold Seeds and Western Seeds confirmed to the
Farming Independent that hundreds of Irish farmers have been unable to source seed from this this spring due to ongoing certification delays under Brexit.
John Faulconbridge of Western Seeds said that all seed has to be certified, which means a huge amount of paperwork.
“Before Brexit, seed was certified the same as EU and we could trade in the EU. However, now the EU will not recognise the UK certification process of seed, even though it has not changed,” he said.
“So we cannot market seeds into Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland.”
