The
Foundation Seed Division is part of the University of
Nebraska and is headquartered at NU’s Agricultural
Research and Development Center near Mead, Nebraska. Because
of the FSD’s research association, it is an integral
part of the Agricultural Research Division within NU’s
Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
As
a self-supporting, non-profit organization, operating
funds are derived directly from sales of foundation seeds
and services. Services provided by the Nebraska Crop Improvement
Association are utilized for inspection of seed fields.
And the expertise of agronomists, plant breeders, plant
pathologists, entomologists, and extension specialists
are also drawn upon.
