Quality Roasting, Inc. cannot emphasize strong enough how growers must have dedicated equipment for treated seed; referring to trailers, wagons, trucks, or any other equipment you may use for your seed. Dedicated seed equipment must never, ever be used to haul grain. The risk to the grower is extremely high. It just takes one treated soybean in a load to reject the entire load. You will be held responsible for any storage bin that treated soybean would be transferred to.
This is not a situation Quality Roasting, Inc. ever wants to experience with one of our growers.
Please use dedicated equipment for your treated seed and NEVER haul any grain with your dedicated equipment. If you have any questions or concerns, please call our office.
