Pickseed West acquires seed assets of International Marketing Services
Tangent, Oregon
July 13, 1998

Pickseed West Inc. of Tangent, Oregon is pleased to announce it has acquired the seed assets of International Marketing Services (IMS).

IMS has been successfully operated by John Rutkai, a career Oregon seedsman.

John has successfully registered a number of American developed turfgrasses in the European Union. As well, he has established important production surfaces of these cultivars.

The IMS/ Pickseed agreement transfers control and future marketing opportunities for this germplasm, including DANCER Perennial ryegrass and TALISMAN turf type Tall fescue to Pickseed.

Pickseed currently has already inscribed a wide array of species and varieties in Europe. These two valuable additions give Pickseed a leading role of high quality North American germplasm for distribution to the European seed industry.
