Develop a voluntary reporting and marketing process to encourage growers to report and boost New Hampshire-bred seed and produce usage

This will include collaborating with UNH breeders and UNHInnovation, as well as private seed savers and the USDA Germplasm Repositories (to identify older, non-hybrid New Hampshire varieties), to create a comprehensive, online list of New Hampshire crop varieties. This data of reported New Hampshire varietal use will be used to create a searchable map of farms and food businesses offering New Hampshire-bred products.
