USDA AMS identifies purity, germination, noxious-weed content, treatment and variety as seed-label information for interstate shipments. A seed ad can direct buyers to the actual lot label instead of turning a generic crop photo into a quality claim.

AMS says seed kinds and varieties are identified on labels and monitors whether a lot matches its stated variety. Creative should name the offered variety only when the seller can show its actual label.

AMS describes certification as a genetic-purity assurance, while germination is separate label information. Those claims need separate evidence in copy; neither is a measured advertising result.

AMS frames truthful labels as information buyers need to choose seed. An ad can lead to a lot-specific label or availability inquiry; that interaction is not itself a completed purchase or the reported aggregate AOV.
