The Principle of Beet Seed Service
Should you need to re-sow your beet crop we will offer the replacement seed at 50% of the initial sale price of the seed.
For example, if you were to spend £180 per unit on INITIO EarlyPower treated seed and needed to re-sow, the seed cost for re-sowing would be £90 per unit.
The 5 steps to participate
Register for Beet Seed service by signing up to myKWS. Register your fields within the Beet Seed Service tool in myKWS.
If the crop fails to establish to a satisfactory level with 8 weeks of driling, submit a damage report via the Beet Seed Service tool. Provide additional information about your failed beet crop.
A member of the KWS team will visit to discuss your crop and the need to re-sow.
If re-sowing is required, KWS will supply the seed directly and invoice at 50% of your initial invoice price. Payment is not due until 1st October in the year of drilling.
When you re-sow your crop, you must add the following details within the Beet Seed Service tool: second sowing date, variety name, certificate number.
