Eureka Seeds, Inc. was established in 1997 when owners Craig Sharp and Ken Scarlett acquired the corn, sorghum and alfalfa seed marketing operations of SeedTec International, Inc. Also, included in this acquisition was SeedTec’s worldwide sunflower breeding program, which has since been sold, and a hybrid sunflower seed production business that remains intact. The company is headquartered in Woodland, California, and is committed to providing service and quality to an expanding customer base.

Today, Eureka Seeds has become a large regional supplier of hybrid corn, hybrid sorghum and alfalfa seed to farmers throughout the western United States. Selling under both the SeedTec Brand and the Eureka Seeds Brand names, Eureka has established a strong network of distributors and dealers to promote and sell a full lineup of high performing seed products. In addition to marketing products from traditional plant breeding efforts, Eureka has made several strategic alliances, which have allowed it to gain access to the latest transgenic developments currently available. The most widely used of these new traits is Roundup Ready® corn which has become widely adapted throughout the western United States and has made Eureka a leader in promoting its acceptance. Other developments including Roundup Ready® alfalfa are being prepared for market now, and will help give customers of Eureka Seeds the most advanced seed products available in the years to come.

Eureka Seeds also maintains a staff that produces hybrid sunflower seed under contract for many of those companies involved in sunflower research and development. Hybrid seed is produced in the fertile Sacramento Valley of California and shipped to customers both in the U.S and around the world. With an experienced, professional staff, Eureka Seeds offers an excellent alternative for independent and professional seed production services.
