Pickseed Canada Inc.
Pickseed Canada Inc. was founded in 1947 by Otto and Marie Pick
as a seed company selling forage mixtures directly to Ontario
farmers. Tom and his brother Martin, who is vice-president, have
been running the company since 1959.
The company sells forage and seeds around the world and operates
a focused corn breeding program developing early hybrids for the
short Canadian growing season.
Operations in Tangent, Oregon, develop turf grass varieties in
the Willemette Valley, south of Portland, where conditions are
ideal. The company has 40,000 acres under contract with growers
who produce turf seed.
In 1997 Pickseed Canada Inc. was selected as one of the Top 50
Best Managed Privately Owned Companies in Canada. The award is
sponsored by Arthur Anderson, Canadian Airlines, CIBC, The
Financial Post and Le Groupe Mallette Maheu.
Pickseed Canada Inc. is also an active member of the Canadian
Trade Association, the American Seed Trade Association, Canadian
Seed Growers' Association, Western Seedmen's Association, and the
International Seed Trade Federation (F.I.S.).
Pickseed Canada Inc. is affiliated with Pickseed West Inc. and
Roberts Seed Company in Tangent, Oregon.
Pickseed's Lindsay laboratory was accredited by Agriculture &
Agri-Food Canada as an official lab entitled to conduct seed
purity and germination testing of all the crops sold and
multiplied by the company. We have four establishments across
Canada.
