How Our Supply Programs Work

Our group operates a program model designed for consistency and traceability: BNCP contracts directly with Saskatchewan growers and manages the supply program. After harvest, lots are cleaned, graded, and packaged at the nearest practical facility to origin to keep freight efficient and documentation consistent. Lots are then allocated to our market-facing subsidiaries, and Bennett’s Seed handles final sales to domestic Canadian buyers or export markets. This structure keeps the supply chain clean, predictable, and audit-friendly.

Typical Specifications (Buyer-Specific Targets by Program)

Specifications are set by contract and confirmed by lot. Below are typical program targets:

Natural Canary Seed (Cleaned)

Purity: ≥ 98.0% - Moisture: ≤ 10.0% - Foreign Material / Admixture: ≤ 1.0% - Packaging: bulk, 25 kg bags, or 1 MT totes (program-based)

Polished Canary Seed (Color-Sorted)

Purity: ≥ 99.5% - Moisture: ≤ 10.0% - Foreign Material / Admixture: ≤ 0.5% - Packaging: 25 kg bags or 1 MT totes (bulk by program)

Certified Organic Canary Seed (Program Supply)

Contract-aligned targets for purity and moisture.
Lot IDs and documentation pack aligned to buyer requirements.
Packaging per destination requirements (bags/totes/bulk).
Standards note (for importers): Canada’s official grading framework for canary seed includes grading factors such as foreign material and ergot. Buyer programs may specify tighter limits than baseline trade tolerances.

Glabrous (Hairless) Canary Seed for Food Applications

For food ingredient development, we support glabrous (hairless) canary seed programs where required, including dehulled groats and milled ingredients by request and availability. Health Canada has assessed dehulled (hairless) canary seed for use as whole groats, meals, and flours in applications such as bakery, cereals, pasta, snacks, and nutritional bars.

MOQ is typically container-based and depends on packaging (bulk vs bags vs totes). Email your destination and packing preference for the fastest quote.

Can you meet buyer-specific limits for moisture, foreign material, or ergot?

Yes. Specifications are set by contract and confirmed by lot. Programs can be structured to tighter limits than baseline trade tolerances.

Do you supply certified organic canary seed?

Is canary seed gluten-free? What about allergies?

Health Canada notes glabrous (hairless) canary seed does not contain gluten; however, individuals with wheat allergy may also react and should use caution.
