Seed Production Issues for Processing Tomatoes,
Now and in the Future
• Hybrids – why, where,
how, and when
• Issues
• the future

CTGA Annual Meeting, January 30, 2013
Why?
• Hybrids generally out yield open pollinated varieties
• Hybrids are usually more widely adaptable and more consistent
• Breeding progress is quicker; it is easier to stack disease resistance
and other traits.

Where?
Due to the need for hand pollination and low cost labor……..
• China
• Southeast Asian countries
• Chile, other South America
• Other areas

When?
• Production is scheduled and planned at least one year in advance of
seed sales
• For 2013 season, the planning was at the end of 2011
• Seed production takes 150 days from sowing to harvest
• Front end time … 2-3 months for planning, shipping of parent seeds
• Back end (seed processing in production location , shipping, seed
processing in Seed Co., testing, packaging, distribution) 3-4 months.

CTGA Annual Meeting, January 30, 2013
Issues in hybrid seed production
• Dependent on hand labor to perform cross pollinations
• Changing economics in traditional producing countries
• Rising labor costs and/or competition with manufacturing jobs
• Political or trade instabilities
• Local disease issues and disease free seed
• Demand for high quality seed
• Export and import regulations
• Timing of production vs market demand
• Inventory risk

CTGA Annual Meeting, January 30, 2013
The Future…..
How to have seed production security/ reliability/ assurance……
• The PT Industry should continue to stay aware and
question
• It is the business of seed companies to take actions to
stay competitive
• Expansion into new production areas or use new
techniques
• Is there enough inventory for two+ year supply in the
event of a catastrophic event?
• The idea of producing in the U.S. ….
