On August 1, 2008, a declaration system was introduced, as part of a quality management system for western Canadian wheat.

Declarations and KVD topics

Grain producers must follow certain procedures under the declaration system to help ensure that the wheat they are delivering is eligible for a specific Western Canadian wheat class. As of February 11, 2008, kernel visual distinguishability (KVD) is no longer a registration requirement for western Canadian wheat varieties.
