We are a long established seed specialist business based in Scotland. We supply estates, farms and crofts across Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland either directly or through our network of appointed agents and distributors.
The business has strong links with leading plant breeders and variety trialling organisations, this supports our selection criteria of considering varieties for inclusion entirely on merit. This enables Watson Seeds to supply the latest grass varieties and the best advice to meet the tough challenges of today's farming environment.
Whilst embracing all the technological advances in the industry we are committed to the traditional values of personal service, sound advice and seed of the highest possible quality.
We enjoy a very positive relationship with a range of key breeders, across Europe and beyond, that enables us to procure the best varieties possible for our Castle Mixtures.
