One bad seed can ruin everything. In this episode, part of a special SANSOR campaign, we unpack why seed certification matters more than you might think.
Across Africa, many farmers unknowingly plant uncertified or poor-quality seed—jeopardising their harvests, their incomes, and their futures.
Thabiso Ntsele, certification technician at the South African National Seed Organisation (SANSOR), joins us to explain how farmers can spot the difference between certified and uncertified seed.
He breaks down the certification process, why it’s a legal safeguard for seed quality, and how choosing the right seed could be the most important farming decision you make this season.
