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

1

Register for Beet Seed service by signing up to myKWS. Register your fields within the Beet Seed Service tool in myKWS.

2

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.
