FAQs

• Seed Grader: Removes oversized or undersized debris and separates seeds by size.
• Magnetic Separation: Removes soil particles, clods, and weed seeds.
• Gravity Separator: Sorts seeds by weight to remove damaged or light seeds.
• Color Sortex: Uses high-speed cameras to remove discolored or off-type seeds.
• Moisture Control: Reduces moisture to optimal levels for storage and vigor.
• Automatic Seed Treater: Applies fungicides, insecticides, and protective coatings.

Yes. We offer job-work seed processing services to individual growers and companies during the off-season.

Our seed processing capacity is approximately 25–30 tonnes per day.

Our Quality Assurance (QA) protocol is designed to eliminate risk for the farmer. We have a rigorous set of quality objectives designed to ensure farmer success. We prioritize the physical and genetic purity of our seeds, ensuring uniform size for ease of sowing and consistent field emergence. By maintaining a strict zero-tolerance policy for insect damage and seed-borne diseases, we protect the crop’s health from the start. Ultimately, our focus on high seed viability and vigour is engineered to deliver sustainable high yields, directly maximizing profit margins and long-term value for the farmer.

The Seeds Act – 1966, Seeds Rules –1968 and Seeds (Control) Order – 1983.

Yes. The Union Ministry of Agriculture has published the Draft Seeds Bill 2025 and has sought public feedback so as to overcome certain deficiencies of the present Seeds Act, 1966 and to take into account the changes that have happened in the seeds sector and Indian economy and proposes for every seed packet to carry a QR code which, when scanned, would allow farmers to access complete information about its origin.

The first generation resulting from crossing of two varieties or parents. Hybrid (certified) seed is the first generation resulting from the cross of two approved inbred lines or parents, one of which is male sterile.

DUS stands for Distinctness, Uniformity and Stability. This is a criteria on the basis of which the Plant Breeders’ Rights will be granted to a variety by the Authority. DUS test will be used as main criteria for deciding the novelty of a variety. The formulation of National test guidelines for DUS testing has been entrusted to ICAR.

The tests in which appropriate samples of seeds are grown to determine the genetic purity of a given seed lot of released and notified variety/hybrid in the field and the extent to which the submitted sample conforms to prescribed standards.

• Morphological characters are studied in detail and compared with authentic reference samples at the appropriate stage of crop growth.
• Seeds are sown in the main field under prevailing environmental conditions after proper land preparation.
• Check samples and authenticated reference samples are grown alongside the test samples.
• The crop is grown up to the peak flowering and fruiting stage.
• Varieties or hybrids are identified based on distinguishable morphological characteristics.
• This test serves as the standard method for genetic purity examination under the seed certification programme.

Breeder seed is produced from nucleus seed under thee supervision of a qualified plant breeder in a research institute of Agricultural University. This provide for initial and recurring increase of foundation seed. Breeder seed is monitored by a joint inspection team of scientists and officials of certification agency and National Seed Corporation. The genetic purity of breeder seed crop should be maintained at 100 per cent. Its tag color is Golden Yellow.

It is the progeny of breeder seed and is produced under technical control of qualified plant breeders or technical officers. Its production is supervised and approved by certification agency. The genetic purity of foundation seed should be maintained at 99.5 per cent. Its tag color is White.

Certified seed is the progeny of foundation seed and its production is supervised and approved by certification agency. The seed of this class is normally produced by the State and National Seeds Corporation and Private Seed companies on the farms of progressive growers. This is the commercial seed which is available to the farmers and its genetic purity should be 99 per cent. Its tag color is Azure Blue.

Quality guaranteed by producing agency. It should satisfy both minimum field and seed standards. Tested for physical purity and germination. Its tag color is Opal Green.
