Signups for this crop are not available online; call our office to signup and request inspections. New clients to OSCS programs must create an account. *Please Note: participation in Oregon Seed Certification programs is voluntary and additional to any Oregon Department of Agriculture regulations and requirements.

Certified crop inspections are underway statewide! Small grains, potatoes, corn, sunflowers, and beans are among the seed crops certified in Oregon. Visit the Certification Information page to learn about Oregon Seed Certification, or our Certification Staff page to find the inspector for your specific crop.

  Was the field signed up for inspection in 2019? 
  Did you sign up to go paperless? If, so hard copies will not be mailed to you.
  Your field may have been rejected subject to reinspection or had another follow-up issue. Call our office to contact your inspector directly.

Was your field rejected subject to reinspection? Be sure to correct the problem and signup for reinspection online by the deadline printed on your report. If that deadline has passed, contact your inspector directly.  Otherwise, login to eCertification and select A10) Signup for Re-Inspection of Fields Rejected Subject to Re-inspection. Fields that are harvested before a reinspection is completed can not be certified.
