Ross Seed Company

Ross Seed Company is a for-profit small business entity based in El Reno, Oklahoma, that has maintained continuous federal vendor registration since November 2003. The company specializes in agricultural seed production and distribution, providing various seed varieties and agricultural products to support federal government operations, particularly prison farm food production initiatives. With a current SAM.gov registration expiring in March 2026, Ross Seed Company has established itself as a reliable supplier of agricultural commodities to federal agencies through purchase order contracts.

Ross Seed Company's federal contract portfolio demonstrates a concentrated and consistent relationship with the Federal Correctional Institution El Reno, a Bureau of Prisons facility within the Department of Justice, which has been its primary federal customer from 2021 through 2025. The company has delivered predominantly wheat seed and triticale seed products valued between $12,396 and $27,300 per contract, with six documented awards totaling approximately $126,254. Of these six contracts, four were designated as total small business set-asides (awarded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024), while two utilized no set-aside provisions (awarded in July 2024 and August 2025). The most recent contract, awarded in August 2025 for $19,800, marked a notable expansion of the company's product offerings beyond traditional seed varieties, as it involved the delivery of registered Angus bulls with performance scheduled in Modesto, California. This diversification suggests Ross Seed Company's growing role in supporting the Federal Correctional Institution El Reno's broader agricultural and farm infrastructure operations, which rely on the company's goods to sustain prison farm food production and livestock management activities.
