Why does NIAB need your Italian rye-grass seeds?
NIAB will be testing different herbicides and needs a good supply of weed seed in each sample (around a coffee mug full, or more if manageable) to complete all tests. Allow the samples to dry for a few days in a breathable bag or an open tray before sending.
