Indian Seed Sector- Brief Overview

The most fundamental component of sustainable agriculture is the seed. The quality of the seeds has a significant impact on how the other inputs respond. According to estimates, the direct contribution of high-quality seed to overall production ranges from 15 to 20 percent, depending on the crop, and can reach up to 45 percent with effective management of other inputs. Particularly in the last 30 years, India’s seed sector has undergone considerable changes.

Several geographical regions like Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra have been India’s leading agricultural seed exporters. They have emerged as the optimal seed storage places under ambient conditions due to the varied agro-climates.

More than 20,000 seed dealers and distributors are working in the seed marketing and distribution industry.

Import and Export from Agricultural Sector

There are no set export or import targets because the export and import of agricultural products depend on several circumstances, including the global and domestic demand and supply situation, global and domestic prices, quality issues, and food security concerns.

With the following vision: “Harness export potential of Indian agriculture, through appropriate policy tools, to make India a worldwide force in agriculture, and boost farmers’ income,” the government has created a comprehensive agriculture export policy.

We are increasing high-value and value-added agricultural exports, concentrating on perishables and diversifying our export destinations and basket.

To encourage the export of new, unique, organic, ethnic, traditional, and non-traditional agricultural products.

To provide a formal framework for pursuing market access, removing obstacles, and addressing sanitary and phytosanitary challenges.

To integrate with international value chains to quadruple India’s share of global agro exports.
