What we actually do

We qualify the lot before we offer it.

Four things stand between a lot and a clean arrival: how the crop was brought off the field, the residues a standard screen cannot see, the lab that can see them, and the read of that result against the exact standard your material has to clear. We cover all four, per lot, before anything is offered.

The analysis

Clean before the lab. Proven after it.

A · At origin

The residue that is never applied

Polar residues do not arrive in a seed by accident. Glyphosate, diquat and paraquat reach grain overwhelmingly through pre-harvest desiccation — the crop is sprayed to dry it down ahead of the combine. Our growers do not desiccate. Production is fully mechanized and the crop is taken on its own natural dry-down. That is why the polar panel reads the way it does. It is not a reason to skip the panel: we still run it on every lot, because a practice is not a proof.

B · The polar panel

The residues a standard screen cannot see

Most conventional chia is screened on a standard multiresidue panel that physically cannot see the polar pesticides — glyphosate, AMPA, paraquat, diquat, phosphonic acid. Those are the ones that fail a lot at the port. We run them, per lot, at Primoris in Belgium (LC-MS/MS, QuPPe polar method), and report the figure — not just “pass.”

C · The labs

Named, per lot, 3–5 days

Primoris (Belgium) — multiresidue + polars. GBA (Hamburg) — heavy metals, microbiology, purity, moisture. Named, per lot, 3–5 day turnaround. The analytical file travels with the cargo.

Method

We report the figure, not a stamp.

Every lot is a separate report against your spec. We show you the analytes before you commit QA time — not after a container is on the water. MRLs are matched against current EU limits, updated as they change.

D · The system

A lab reports a lot. Our system reports it against you.

A certificate of analysis is a wall of numbers. Whether those numbers clear your destination and your buyer’s private list is a separate, manual, error-prone read. We built the layer that does it instantly — EU MRLs, US tolerances and private lists held as current structured data, matched to each lot’s result line by line, before it ships.

Same seed, same labs as anyone. The intelligence that turns a lab report into a shipment decision is the part we own.

Start with a document, not a commitment

Send your list. We’ll run it.

Send the pesticide list and purity floor your material has to clear. We’ll run it as analytes and return a pass/fail on every line.

Nothing is committed until you have seen the analysis. The spec run costs you nothing.
