State of Organic Seed, 2022

Download this publication

State of Organic Seed (SOS) is an ongoing project to monitor organic seed systems in the United States. Every five years, Organic Seed Alliance (OSA) releases this progress report and action plan for increasing the organic seed supply while fostering seed grower networks and policies that aim to decentralize power and ownership in seed systems. This 2022 report is our third update, allowing us to compare new data with our 2011 and 2016 findings. 

Read our press release here.

Our short data briefs are here:

  • Data brief for organic farmers
  • Data brief for organic seed producers/companies
  • Data brief for organic plant breeders/researchers
  • Data brief for organic regulators/certifiers
