VUA Reporting - Due June 30, 2026

I hope your crop is off to a good start! 

Reminder – VUA reporting is due June 30 – for SeCan in western Canada this includes Esma, KWS Kellie, RGT Planet, ORe BOOST, CDC Armstrong, and CDC Pristine.  

1. All retail customers who purchased these varieties must have a signed VUA in the system – this is the responsibility of the retailer. This should have been done before the seed leaves your yard (it is much easier than chasing the customer after the seed has moved). 

2. Please ensure that all wholesale customers are in the VUA system. If not, send an email to jwhiting@secan.com (include business name, contact name, address, email and phone number). 

3. Please return the attached reconciliation spreadsheet to jwhting@secan.com by June 30, 2026. 

If you are selling ORe BOOST – in forage mixtures with ORe BOOST oats making up less than 50% of the mix, these blends are not required to be logged in the VUA system, as the risk of farm-saved seed is very low. Please complete the attached tracking form and submit to Janine Whiting at jwhiting@secan.com by June 30, 2026.  

Note: On June 22 your past customers received both an email and a text message containing a link to make their declaration for 2026 farm-saved seed use. This link will automatically log them into their account and take them directly to the declaration form. We are hopeful this approach will streamline completion and provide a more user-friendly experience for producers.   

Do not hesitate to contact me, Janine or your local SeCan Marketing Representative if you have questions. 

Sincerely,

Todd Hyra
