Seeds Online public users guide

Anyone can access public seed test results using Seeds Online.

Public users can access results for

  • completed tests
  • certified seed lines that have passed certification
  • samples given public access by the test owner – see Seeds Online registered users guide for how to do this.

You must know the line number and cultivar name to search test results.

Searching seed test results

  1. Go to Seeds Online public access.
  2. Enter the seed line or seed lot number.
  3. Enter the cultivar name (the first 3 letters of the cultivar name is enough).
  4. Click 'search'.
  5. Select the line number to display the test results – select the most recent if more than one is listed.
  6. Click 'Previous screen' to return to the public search screen.

If no test results are found it may be because the:

  • seed sample was not tested by Seed Services Australia
  • test has not been completed
  • seed line has failed final certification standards
  • seed sample owner has not given public access
  • information used in the search was incorrect.
