Individual Activities Listed as activities of the Utah Crop Improvement Association is the development of high quality seeds, plants, and ground stock, and the elimination of weeds and foreign growths .from the soil These activities are carried on by the individual growers, under the area supervisor. If the grower does not conform to the requirements, the area supervisor is abound by the rules of the Utah Crop Improvement Association to classify the seed as common rather than certified. This has happened to hundreds of acres here in the Basin. This is a program set up by the growers on volunteer basis and has not come from pressure from the ' 4 state government.
