Welcome! Please note Please thatnote the acreage t data listed in this directory represent acres meeting field tolerances for foundation and certified class seed potatoes in Wisconsin at the completion of summer field inspections. All certified and foundation class seed potatoes in Wisconsin are post-harvest tested to ensure compliance with certification requirements. As such, these figures are not final, as certification requirements are not met until tuber inspections, post-harvest testing and grade inspections are complete. Buyers who B purchase seed prior to completion of the postharvest test are encouraged to check the final classification of seed lots (generally available after February 1) prior to shipping. Buyers of Wisconsin certified seed potatoes are encouraged to contact the Certification office to obtain this information at any time. The professional The professional staff at thestaff Certification at the Certification office alsooffice can also can provide and p explain "generation" designations of 2015 seed lots. Results ofRsummer field inspections, tuber inspections and the post-harvest winter test may be obtained by writing or calling the Wisconsin Seed Potato Certification Program, P.O.

Strict Standards Mean High Quality From Wisconsin All certified seed potatoes are produced in a limited generation program with a maximum of seven generations of field propagation. Certified seed potato growers must enter their entire potato acreage for certification, and plant all acreage with foundation class seed. Only certified seed potato growers with a record of no bacterial ring rot for two consecutive seasons can produce foundation class seed. All potatoes entered for certification undergo a minimum of two field inspections and a tuber inspection at harvest or in storage.

All potatoes meeting field and tuber inspection standards must be post-harvest tested to be eligible for certified seed tags. All potato storage facilities must be inspected and approved prior to filling with certified seed potatoes. All certified seed potatoes must be graded in accordance with Wisconsin seed potato grade standards before official tags can be attached. Post-harvest testing of all certified seed lots ensures that problems from late-season virus infections are identified and assessed according to specific tolerances, preventing the movement of seed lots with potentially yield- and qualitydamaging virus infections to commercial potato growers.

Tolerances for Certified and Foundation Seed Potato Classes in Wisconsin Wisconsin seed potatoes are classified as "certified" or "foundation", depending on disease and mixture levels and intended use. Tolerances Tolerances for certified forclass certified are class set to are meet set to meet minimum m acceptable standards for commercial production (see table).

*Seed certified in Wisconsin does not exceed the appropriate tolerances listed in the above tables based on visual inspections. Higher tolerances Higher tolerances in the winter test are due to the greater likelihood of selecting infected tubers in single-drop seed, as used in this test. Any seed imported into Wisconsin for recertification must also meet our same standards, both field and post harvest test tolerances, for virus and variety mixture. We also view thirdparty shipping point inspections, required by Wisconsin ATCP156, as a critical component of the seed certification process and as an absolute requirement recertification.

Incidence of Blackleg at second inspection is indicated on the North American Seed Potato Health Certificates. Targeted Targeted sampling of field Blackleg samples for Dickeya is underway. A program wide survey of tubers to look for the pathogen in certified seed has also been initiated.

Typically over 85% of seed lots entered for certification meet FOUNDATION quality standards for both field and winter-test inspections.
