How does a seed lab benefit from being a member of ISTA?
Becoming an ISTA member lab brings a seed lab into the international community of seed testing and technology.

ISTA membership provides the seed lab with

  • the active support of the ISTA Secretariat;
  • all ISTA technical Handbooks and publications;
  • the International Rules for Seed Testing;
  • ISTA's peer reviewed scientific journal, Seed Science and Technology;
  • access to the ISTA website;
  • the opportunity to participate in ISTA's Technical Committee work; and
  • a warm welcome to the ISTA "family".

If the seed lab wishes to then seek accreditation, and thus be authorised to issue ISTA's International Seed Analysis Certificates, ISTA provides the mechanism and the support required for the lab to achieve this goal. The benefits are, therefore, numerous.
