Summary

Under current law, a potato grower in Colorado is allowed to plant
uncertified potatoes if the uncertified potatoes are no more than one
generation removed from certified parent potatoes or qualified parent
potatoes, but does not require any testing to verify the health of those
potato seeds.
The bill clarifies that uncertified potatoes may be planted only if
they have been submitted and tested by the certifying authority of
Colorado prior to planting. The testing process is aimed to ensure that if
uncertified potatoes are planted in Colorado, those potatoes are free from
disease or other issues that may be detrimental to Colorado's potato crop.
