MPCI Endorsements

Increased Germination for Hybrid Seed Corn

The MPCI policy guarantees that the seed corn will have a warm test germination rate of 80% or greater on a total composite sample. This endorsement provides improved coverage by guaranteeing that the seed corn will have a warm test germination rate of at least 90% and a cold test germination rate of at least 80% as applied separately to samples of rounds and flats. Seed corn having a germination rate above the MPCI standard but less than the endorsement standards will be covered under this endorsement. Seed corn having a germination rate less than the MPCI standard will be covered by the MPCI policy.

Available states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, and Nebraska.
