Purpose of this contract

The purpose of this contract is the procurement of missing machines and equipment needed for successful and valid performance of experiments related to the examination of varieties. Also, a part of the machines would be supplied with connection equipment and connecting machines. The project would also improve storage conditions, ie the controlled temperatures and humidity in the premises (cold chambers) where the samples of the seeds are kept. An easier network communication between the field viewer and the test organiser would also be established, which would enable faster information transfer. This project would strengthen the Plant Protection Directorate, ie the Department for the recognition of varieties as well as the institutions that are entrusted with the tasks of testing the varieties.
