Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fruited Plain still has time to cure the defect and provide the high-quality grain seed that was originally agreed upon in the contract. This is the best option for resolving the issue and fulfilling the terms of the contract. Cancelling the contract or seeking damages may not be the most productive approach at this stage, as there is still a chance to deliver the correct product. Reselling or disposing of the seed without authorization from Grange Co-op could also lead to legal complications.
