After seed has been conditioned, it must be labeled before distribution to any person including a wholesaler. Each bag or bulk lot must be completely labeled when supplied to a retailer or consumer. Labeling of seed supplied to or owned by a wholesaler (one whose predominant business is to supply seed to other distributors rather than to consumers of seed) may be by a master tag or laboratory report accompanying the invoice, provided each bag or other container is clearly identified by a lot number or if the seed is in bulk. Each bag or container that is not so identified must carry complete labeling.
