ABOUT TREVOR COPE SEEDS LIMITED

Cope Seeds are a sales and marketing company of agricultural seeds, built on thirty eight years of experience within the UK seeds industry. We process a wide range of species both conventionally and organically, which are marketed to wholesale and retail customers throughout the UK.

One of the key parts of our business is the development of new varieties that bring benefits to both the UK farmer and end user. To date we have successfully commercialised a number of varieties including Atego, Rozmar and Vok Spring Oats, Sokrates and Magister Winter Wheat, Amaretto Spring Wheat and Armada Spring Barley and we are constantly trialling new material each year in both AHDB Recommended List trials and independent trials.

To reflect our company expanding its trade globally, we have joined forces with Amigos. Amigos is a charity which supports Ugandans to work their way out of poverty with dignity. Their approach to ending poverty is special. A powerful mix of education, vocational training, practical farming and emotional support is changing the future for thousands of Ugandan families.

Amigos vision is for a confident and thriving rural Uganda where no one goes to bed hungry. Their mission is to give families the hope and the means to live off their own land and set up small businesses to revolutionise their futures.

Farming skills were lost due to HIV and the war, and today families are struggling to grow enough to survive. Amigos believe they have part of the solution conservation farming a climate friendly technique which results in crop yields four times greater than traditional methods. We are proud to have donated £1500 from our organic seed sales towards this charity and look forward to supporting the charity further this forthcoming season.
