2010 FOUNDATION SEED PRICE LIST

The NDAES Seed Pricing Committee met October 22, 2009 to establish the 2010 price structure for Foundation seed.  Cost of production and Estimated Year-end Minneapolis Cash Grain Market Price is based upon projections made by NDSU Extension Ag Economists at the time of the pricing committee meeting.  This approach should provide stability in projecting resources, reduce the need for yearly minor adjustments and be consistent with our goal of providing a cost recovery service..  Prices for some specialty crops are based upon cost of Foundation seed production.
