Since less quantity of seeds is available, first it can be used for demonstration purposes, and some quantity can be used for field trials in more locations. After ascertaining the yield potential of the DMH-11, seed multiplication will be done, he said, adding for field demonstration there is no need to seek State’s permission.
Efforts are needed to produce more hybrid seeds through private and public partnerships so that a larger area could be covered in the next cropping season, Paroda said.“With available seeds, ICAR can easily conduct 50-100 field demonstrations under a controlled environment this rabi season, to check the performance,” said RS Paroda,Chairman of Trust for Advancement of Agricultural Sciences (TAAS) and also a former D-G of ICAR.
“A beginning has been made and more and more crops will be developed with genetic engineering technology,” said KC Bansal, secretary of NAAS.--Coalition for a GM-free India
