Farm Advisory Services
The quality and genetic purity of seed crops are monitored at different stages of production through continuous involvement of the Federal Seed Certification and Registration Department. Field inspections and certification procedures help ensure that the seed produced by registered growers meets the required quality and purity standards.
After successful certification, the certified seed produced by the registered growers is procured by Punjab Seed Corporation at the rate agreed upon in the grower agreement.
Advisory Services to Seed Growers
Punjab Seed Corporation (PSC) is committed to producing and supplying high-quality seed of various crops to support sustainable agriculture and improve crop productivity in Punjab. For the multiplication and production of quality seed, PSC engages registered growers across the province for the production of basic and certified seed.
PSC provides farm advisory services to its registered seed growers throughout the crop season. The field staff regularly visits the farms of registered growers to monitor crop progress, provide technical guidance, and advise growers on best agricultural practices for the production of pure and high-quality seed.
