Summary
OrganicXseeds is a web-based database that provides information on the availability of organic seeds and plant reproductive material across several European countries. It supports farmers, advisors and certification bodies in selecting suitable organic varieties and ensuring compliance with organic regulations. Users can search for crops and varieties and check availability. If organic seed is not available, the tool enables users to request derogations directly through the platform. OrganicXseeds functions as both a decision-support and compliance tool and is widely integrated into national organic systems. It is particularly relevant for organic farmers, seed suppliers and advisors. The platform is based on EU organic regulations and contributes to transparency and efficiency in organic seed use.
