OUR STRENGTHS Here at Pure Line, we believe that our core strengths align with our vision of "Tomorrow's Harvest in Today's Seeds" and lie in the following four areas:
4
Seed Production
Breeding Innovation
Seed Health
Strong Relationships
Our team utilizes a network of professional seed growers in the Pacific Northwest’s Columbia River Basin, our country’s premier seed growing region, to produce high quality seed. Attentive care throughout the season means we’re able to offer open varieties and our own proprietary material at a higher standard. Through custom production we offer this same standard to companies across the world.
Induce variation and make selection- this is the principle of plant breeding, on which Pure Line Seed's breeding program stands today. We use traditional, non-GMO practices to induce variation followed by intensive selection processes in the field for six years. Unlike many other breeding programs, we include and rely on our customers, growers, and public breeders in our final selection process. We run trials of our best lines across the globe. Together, we choose the best of those selections to become new varieties. This collaboration constantly folds back into the breeding process for continuous improvement.
Our primary focus is to provide a healthy environment for our seed crop so that it provides us with healthy seed. This includes using the best seed to start with and working closely with our growers to monitor for diseases and use the best tools available, like IPM, to abate biotic and abiotic stresses. All of our fields are inspected and certified as disease free by the USDA. The research and production teams work together every year to maintain clean seed lots, free of off-types. Our commitment to healthy food, healthy people, and healthy farms has encouraged us to produce WSDA certified organic seed of our best performing fresh market varieties.
Pure Line Seeds has maintained a foundation of strong business relationships built on trust, reliability, quality products, and complete flexibility. Whether it’s providing interpersonal connections or presenting a better price on competitive varieties, we strive to go the extra mile in meeting the needs of our customers.
