Seed World Group interview with Billy Skaggs, Georgia Crop Improvement
At the 2023 AOSCA Annual Meeting in Bloomington, Minn. (June 4-7), newly elected AOSCA president Billy Skaggs sat down with Aiden Brook, director of partner development at Seed World Group, to talk about certified peanuts, changes in Georgia’s seed industry and what he’s most excited about in his new role as head of AOSCA.
The certification program manager at Georgia Crop Improvement Association Inc., Skaggs is a keen advocate for certified seed. He said seed certification is important primarily because it ensures that the farmer actually gets what they think they’re buying.
