Seed System Development Strategy

The strategy recognises that along with other effective agronomic activities, farm management strategies, and national policies and interventions, the seed sector is capable of immensely contributing to increased crop production. The strategy seeks to make available seeds of improved varieties to men, women, and youths engaged in crop production, with ease in availability, accessibility, timeliness, price, as well as quantity and quality. The strategy has several underlying factors, ranging from effective development, release, and registration of high-quality seeds to maximising the potential of the informal sector.
