Make seed firms stick to norms, says Collector

Staff Reporter

GUNTUR: Collector V.N. Vishnu instructed the officials of the agriculture department to meet 50 per cent of the demand for cotton seed before June 12 and to ensure that the quality norms are adhered to.

Addressing a meeting on the subject here on Saturday, Mr. Vishnu said the seed companies have to keep their commitments before the farmers begin sowing operations.

Due focus has to be laid on illegal transportation of seeds and there should be no slip-ups in supply at the field-level.

The Tulasi Seeds and the Nuziveedu Seeds have so far supplied only about 10 per cent of the indents placed with them. They should ramp up the supplies, the Collector added.

Joint Collector A. Sarath, RDOs S. Dhilli Rao, K. Sreenivasulu, and Joint Director of Agriculture Y. Pulla Reddy were present.
