There are seven OECD [Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development] schemes in operation involving the varietal certification of seed moving in international trade : herbage(grass and legume), oilseed, cereal, vegetable, sugar and fodder beet, maize and sorghum, subterranean clover and similar species. The objectives of these schemes are to encourage the use of seed of consistently high quality for the improvement of forage, food and fibre production in participating countries and to facilitate the international movement of Certified seed. 2, record 2, English, - OECD%20Schemes%20for%20the%20Varietal%20Certification%20of%20Seed%20Moving%20in%20International%20Trade

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Blind seed disease, caused by Gloeotinia temulenta, can cause considerable losses in forage grasses managed for seed production.... The fungus infects the developing embryo, which then becomes a partially shrunken, rusty-brown caryopsis(small, dry fruit) rather than a healthy seed. Infected seeds are indistinguishable from healthy seeds, but they can be detected when glumes are removed. The fungus survives in infected seeds in the soil and reproduces above-ground in the developing grass floret. The spores are wind-blown and gain entry to an open floret just below the stigma, completing the primary infection. The fungus destroys the embryo, preventing seed formation and producing the typical "blind seed. " 3, record 4, English, - blind%20seed

An animal is considered grass-fed, according to the USDA [United States Deparment of Agriculture] Grass Fed Marketing Claim Standards, when grass and forage are the "feed source consumed for the lifetime of the ruminant animal, with the exception of milk consumed prior to weaning. Animals cannot be fed grain or grain by-products and must have continuous access to pasture during the growing season. Hay, haylage, baleage, silage, crop residue without grain, and other roughage sources may also be included as acceptable feed sources. Routine mineral and vitamin supplementation may also be included in the feeding regimen. " 3, record 12, English, - grass%2Dfed%20beef
