Seeds are send out to registered customers for use in research or restoration

One of the functions of the MSB is to distribute seed samples (from collections that meet certain criteria) for bona fide research purposes. The Seed Bank Database contains a list of 'customers', and through the seed ordering programme produces all the information and printouts required to fulfil this commitment. It is possible to keep records on what a customer has ordered and which customer has ordered a certain accession.
