Seed certification
154. You can get a separate leaflet on seed certification and set-aside from your local area office. This explains the implications of set-aside for seed growers and, in particular, the correct intervals for seed crops.
Seed production aid
155. You can continue to claim seed production and AAPS aid for the same crop of linseed or spelt wheat. However, if you intend to claim seed production aid, you should contact the RPA before you enter into any contracts.
