Resource Seeds, Inc. – Dedicated to Profitable and Sustainable Agriculture and Resource Management
Resource Seeds was founded in 1990 to profitably provide crop varieties and information to improve agricultural productivity and resource use. With highly skilled and experienced plant breeders and agronomists, Resource Seeds has become the leading source of triticale varieties in the U.S., and a top supplier of wheat varieties for the far western states. Building on these strengths, Resource Seeds also is becoming a leading source of forage oats and forage sorghum for dairies in California and other major dairy areas.

For forage, in cooperation with university and USDA researchers throughout the U.S., Resource Seeds is championing the improved production and use of triticale and other cereal grains for silage, hay, and grazing to achieve the tremendous economic and environmental benefits that they offer.

For grain, Resource Seeds’ hard white and hard red wheat varieties are the leading varieties in their target markets, and its triticale grain varieties are the foundation for the development of triticale grain markets in several regions of the country.

Seed of the crop varieties developed by Resource Seeds are produced and sold by a select group of local and regional seed companies throughout the U.S. that are committed to providing high quality seed and service.
