The SIMS™ program allows the producer to replant soybean seed from the initial breeder seed (BrS) purchased from Galena Genetics.
The producer then takes on the responsibility for care and control of the Galena Genetics seed selected to be planted, cultivated, harvested, and stored until such time as the producer selects a market. From the time the seed is planted through the sale of the production, it never leaves the watchful eye of the producer. Under the SIMS™ program, the producer is also responsible for care and control of the seed retained for the next year’s crop.
What does SIMS™ mean for the processor?
When purchasing organic and non-GMO soybeans raised under the SIMS™ program, the processor obtains a product with the highest purity achievable, a guarantee they can pass on to the consumer. When purchasing organic and non-GMO soybeans raised under the SIMS™ program, the processor obtains a product with the highest purity achievable, a guarantee they can pass on to the consumer.
Compared to today's modern way of raising and distributing seed to the farmer, SIMS™ eliminates a minimum of five handlings.
Each handling brings additional risk of contamination. Eliminating multiple handlings produces the highest purity achievable in the marketplace.
SIMS™ vision, shared by both producers and processors, is the highest standard of care and quality for soybean seed used to produce food for both humans and livestock.
