Seed sales for anti-malarials
We support the World Health Organisation’s advice on the treatment of malaria (read their position statement here). Therefore, we are only able to sell A. annua seeds to growers who supply the high quality ACT supply chain. We will not supply seeds to growers who produce teas or other forms of treatments which are not WHO approved.
Seed is supplied with a Materials Transfer Agreement to ensure that all recipients are aware of the commitment to use artemisinin in accordance with WHO recommendations.

If you require seed for other purposes, we may be able to assist you: please email Caroline Calvert for advice. If we can provide seed, this will be supplied via EWS Ltd and a charge may be levied to cover their costs of production and distribution.
