Identifier

The accession identifier is RSC-PAK-KHY-0120190003, built from the holder, the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country, the province segment, the month, the year and the sequence number.

Province segment KHY is for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as on RSC-PAK-KHY-0120240001.
Year 2019 is the harvest in the sourcing line. The month digits are 01 because no month is given.
Sequence 0003. RSC-PAK-KHY-0120190001 is Chitrali and RSC-PAK-KHY-0120190002 Waziri, both of 2019.

Sourcing

The six versions of RSC's Tirah listing in the Wayback Machine from September 2020 to July 2022; the listing at the same address as it stood on 27 October 2026; and the Kwik Seeds listing as it stood on 26 October 2026. Kwik Seeds is the shop RSC calls its other site (RSC, Hemp & Multipurpose).

Lots at this listing

The listing's address has carried four lots under the title Tirah:

"The Real Seed Company, collected in Tirah Valley, Hindu Kush, 2018 harvest", September and November 2019 (two versions): RSC-PAK-KHY-0120180002;
"Landrace Genetics, Tirah Valley, Hindu Kush, 2019 Harvest", September 2020 to July 2022 (six): this page;
"Landrace Genetics, Tirah Valley, Hindu Kush, 2022 Harvest", December 2022 to January 2025 (seven readable versions; an October 2024 capture holds only a holding page): RSC-PAK-KHY-0120220001;
"Landrace Genetics, Tirah Valley, Hindu Kush, 2024 Harvest", from May 2025 (six): RSC-PAK-KHY-0120240001.

Typing

Classification: Landrace, sourcing type Point of Origin, autochtonous Yes: the listing describes a landrace from the Tirah Valley, of the 2019 harvest.
Accession type. General population. The listing says the seeds were hand-selected from plants with desirable traits; it describes the choice of seed plants within the harvest, not seed of one plant.
Collector. Angus, as on the other accessions whose sourcing line reads "Landrace Genetics".
Hierarchy. Growing area Tirah, the wiki's page for the valley's growing area. No growing region is entered: "Hindu Kush" in the listing is the seller's name for the mountains and stays in the sourcing quoted above, while the wiki's Hindu Kush growing region takes in only Upper and Lower Chitral on the Pakistani side, and no source places Tirah in a growing region. No district is entered: the wiki's Tirah page spans Khyber and Orakzai districts, and the listing names neither.
Leaf shape is left empty: the listing gives "broad- to narrow-leafleted".
Processing. "Charas (sieved resin)" is entered as Dry-sift; the notes keep the listing's "garda".
Related accessions. The other three lots of the listing.
Conventions. Photoperiod Short-day and introgression Minimal follow the other RSC accessions; the listing states neither.

Georeferencing

The listing names the Tirah Valley and no village. The point 33.72, 70.95 is the point of the wiki's Tirah page, which describes a growing area of about 1,700 km² in Khyber and Orakzai districts. OpenStreetMap places it in Lower Orakzai Tehsil, Orakzai District (relation 16502874), 3.2 km from the village of Kalaya (node 11267308751), and SRTM gives 2,023 m there. It is an area point for the valley, not the place the seed was gathered, and the uncertainty is the radius of a circle of the growing area's size, as on RSC-PAK-KHY-0120240001. Basis: district point. Uncertainty: about 24 km.

Source discrepancies

Genetics line. RSC, September 2020: "Hindu Kush Landrace". From March 2021: "Traditional Hindu Kush Domesticate ('Landrace')".
Harvest year at Kwik Seeds. The Kwik Seeds listing, as it stood on 26 October 2026, gives "(2024 Harvest)" in its sourcing line but says in its description that "This accession is from the 2019 harvest", the wording of RSC's versions of this lot.
