Ordering Certified FINOLA Planting Seed for 2013
Dear Customer,
This
e-mail provides information to order planting seeds. If you would like
to be removed from this e-mail list, please let me know.
Some
parts of the ordering process have now been automated. If you are
interested in ordering certified FINOLA planting seed for 2013, please
read these instructions carefully. After a two weeks, I will post this
info for the general public on the Finola web pages. We have a limited
supply, so it is important for you to reserve your planting seed before
that time. Expect your seed to be
delivered near the middle of April 2013. We suggest a seeding rate of
25-30 kg/ha.
For best results, FINOLA should not be sown earlier than the middle of
May. Early June is still a good time to sow FINOLA. For
basic farming info, please download: http://www.finola.fi/Finola_ basic_farming_info_23022013. pdf
Seed, Prices and Shipping Information
We
only offer OECD certified FINOLA planting seed in 25 kg bags. The seed
is imported from Canada this year, and it has been authorized for import
and distribution
within the EU. This seed has not been treated with any chemicals, so it
is suitable for organic cultivation. Each bag has its own OECD
certification tag, which may be
required to receive a subsidy in your country.
Please contact your Ministry of Agriculture for more information.

Ordering Your SEED We have set up a web form
for you to order seeds this year. To reserve your order, please click on this web
address and enter your info:http://finola.fi/order-eng.php
After
placing your order,
you will immediately see an automated “thanks”, to let you know that
your information has been entered into our database. Near the middle of
March, I will send you
an invoice by e-mail, which will include all transport and handling
costs for
delivery. Be sure to check that all of your information is correct. To
finalize your order, simply pay the invoice before the due date, which
is stated on your
invoice. Information for direct bank payment will also be stated on the
invoice. Non-payment by the due date will let me know that you do not
want the seed. After
payment has been received, I will send you an e-mail to confirm that
your
payment was received. After your order has been shipped, I will send you
a
tracking code, so that you can check on the progress yourself.
We have a limited supply of planting seed for 2013. Those who enter their information first will have preference over those who sign up later!
We must receive full payment before any seed is shipped, and our prices do not
include possible taxes in your country, or insurance on the shipment. If you
are ordering from outside of the EU, be sure to understand that it will be your
responsibility to receive this shipment at your nearest port of entry, clear it
through your customs, pay any additional importation taxes or fees, and
eventually organize your own transport to a final destination.
Status of FINOLA in the European Union
FINOLA has been listed
in the EC Common Catalogue of Varieties of Agricultural Plant Species since
1999. Its EU eligibility as a subsidized crop was removed after 2006,
apparently due to administrative incompetence, yet FINOLA remains on this list.
After some years of discussions, the European Commission finally returned the eligibility
to FINOLA on 23 February 2011, but only for Finnish farmers. The discussions
continue. A recent decision by the Commission may finally allow each Member
State to decide about FINOLA. Please contact your Ministry of Agriculture for
more information.
