Rules Governing the Planting of Beans, other than Phaseolus Species, In Idaho
IDAPA 02.06.25
ISDA was petitioned by industry involved in bean research to add a small trial ground exemption to the rule IDAPA 02.06.25, specifying inspection in lieu of disease testing for non-Phaseolus beans of small seed lots of two pounds or less. This exemption is included in IDAPA 02.06.06 Rules Governing the Planting of Beans (Phaseolus Species), in Idaho, but was not included in the non-Phaseolus bean rule when it was created. Industry is requesting that this rule be amended to be consistent with IDAPA 02.06.02 by adding the trial ground exemption
Proposed changes to the rule would allow non-phaseolus bean growers to plant trial ground lots of seed to be inspected rather than disease testing seed, as much of the seed can be rendered non-viable in the testing process.
