Is organic seed playing a role in Brazil at this time, or will it play a role in the near future?
The organic seed market at this time represents very little because organic growers can use regular and treated seed for an organic crop.

I understand the Brazilian organic association, IDB (Instituto Biodināmico) is presently reviewing the standards for production and distribution of organic products. IBD is globally recognized.

This is a niche market, but as disposable income grows in Brazil, this market will become more important. Agristar does offer organic seeds in its product line.
