Landowners may state the variety (ies) of seeds proposed to be produced in that area as well as the geographical boundary of such an area. Each area shall have a Seed Control Committee whose duty is to control, facilitate and protect the growing of seed in the Seed Potato Control Area (sect. 7). Owners or occupiers of land situated within a Seed Potato Control Area must not grow or permit to grow on the land any seed of a variety other than that prescribed under this Act (sect. 8).
