Why is the passage of the new Seeds Bill being demanded by scientists and industry

Scientists and industry demand changes in policy related to seeds.
  • The current Seeds Bill is outdated and does not address the challenges faced by the agricultural industry in India.
  • Scientists and industry experts believe that the new bill should include provisions for promoting research and development in seed technologies.
  • There is a need for a regulatory framework that supports innovation and ensures quality standards in seed production and distribution.
  • Updating the Seeds Bill can help in streamlining the seed sector, reducing regulatory hurdles, and fostering growth and competitiveness in the agriculture industry.
  • Improving the policies related to seeds can lead to increased productivity, better crop yields, and overall agricultural development in the country.
