1 INDIAN SEED INDUSTRY SCENARIO RAJENDRA KAWADE & MOHAN BHISE INDIA
2 1.INDIA Area = 308 M.Ha Population =1.22 Billion Area under crops = m Ha Rain fall = mm Season = 3 States =28 Union teritorey =7
3 In India, Food demand likely to nearly double from ~440 in 2007 to ~850 million metric tons in 2020 Demand Situation Global food demand 2x by 2020 Rising Income & education level demand for better food (The current high prices are an indicator) Meat consumption expected to increase rapidly (1 unit needs 5 units of crop output) Estimation of food demand Million metric tonnes Cereals 1.8x 1.5x Choice to increase production of food, fibre and feed to meet demand? Vegetable & Fruits Bring more land under cultivation Reduce wastages Storage & transportation Develop & deliver suitable high yielding seeds with Improved agronomic practices Improve yield / unit of resources i.e. land & Water x Milk 2.8x SOURCE: Working paper no. 209; ICRIER; NSSO; interviews Meat/Fish/eggs
4 Better Seeds & Agronomy Crucial role in enhancing yield Seed Breeding + Biotechnology 250% Farm Practices 100% Land (-5%) Reduced Losses 20% 50% 80% Current Crop Production Future Crop Production
5 Indian Seed Industry From an essentially non existent seed industry half a century ago, it is now truly an industry involving thousands of farmer growers, hundreds of seed companies and public corporations, doing a multi billion dollar business
6 Key milestones in evolution of Indian Seed Industry National Seeds Corporation, 1963 Seed Act, 1966, Seed Rules, 1968, Seed Control Order, 1983 National Seed Projects (1975, 1981, 1988) Supported by World Bank 15 State Seed Corporations were established New Policy on Seed Development, 1988 National Seed Policy, 2002 Seed Bill 2004 / 2010
7 Indian Seed Industry: Foundation National Seeds Corporation National Seed Project Infrastructure Green Revolution Access to public research products Liberalization of policies
8 Indian Seed Industry: Public v/s Private Public institutions (NSC / SFCI / SSCs) rely on large volume / low value seeds of self pollinated crops (rice/wheat), where farmers can save seeds & therefore their need for seed replacement is governed by their ability to preserve genetic purity & quality Private entrepreneurs focuses on seeds of crops requiring seed replacement by farmers every year( Hybrid seeds)

18 Annual sale of seed Status of Indian Seed Industry Indian Seed Industry ranks 5th in domestic seed sales - turnover of 2000 million USD, next only to USA, China, France and Brazil. India`s rank in the World seed market has increased from 10 th position with value of 600 million USD in 2002 to fifth position with 2000 million USD in India`s share in Global seed export still lies less than 2%. Value of the seeds exported from India is around Rs.150 crores. This amounts to 0.35% of the world seed exports and 0.12% of the India s agricultural exports. World seed market is 42 billion USD -USA stands first with million USD.

29 Climate Change and Seed Production Agriculture is highly climate sensitive and so is the seed production Due to climate change there may be uncertainty about the adaptation of cultivars. Potential adverse changes in temperature, precipitation and the frequency of extreme events (for example, droughts, heat waves, floods) are likely to increase the vulnerability of crop and seed production. Due to changes in weather conditions, it is expected that crop yield and consequently seed yield shall decrease.
30 Suggestions : Climate change Mitigation: I Germplasm Re- assess/evaluate the performance of GP under a variety of climatic conditions. Traits like *heat tolerant *flood tolerant *drought tolerant * salinity tolerant *lodging resistant etc are useful to with stand the adverse effects of climate change. Use them in crop breeding program
31 Challenges in Seed Production Seed Production in coming decades should be different from the past It has to be more efficient. The emphasis should be increased yield per unit area of land rather than per plant Good genetics, Seed technology and new technologies like biotechnology will be useful in mitigating the impact of climate change. The agriculture sector has survived the yield plateau crisis due to the successful application of transgenic technology.
32 Challenges in Seed Production It may be worthwhile to research on alternate areas of seed production in some important crops like: 1. Cotton 2. Maize 3. Hybrid Paddy 4. Vegetables Mitigation of surface warming through leaf albedo biogeoengineering is being seen as a possible method to tackle canopy warming. It can be achieved by genetic modification of plant leaf waxes or canopy structure to achieve greater temperature reduction by maximizing solar reflectivity.
33 Conclusion Climate change has probably already begun Mean surface temperature is expected to rise by 1.5 to 3.5 C by It will lead to the uncertainties about the adaptation of cultivars. It is expected that food production and seed production shall decline. It may influence the top and bottom line of seed industries Therefore suitable breeding and technological strategies should be in place to mitigate/negate its effect
