Synopsis

In the realm of agricultural production, seed serves as the vital input. Without access to high-quality seed or planting material, it is impossible to achieve sustainable production and top-quality yields, even with the implementation of optimal technical management practices. A diverse array of crops are cultivated both in India and internationally, and the methods employed for successful seed production can vary significantly. Despite the abundance of information available on this topic, it is often disorganized and scattered.

The book under discussion addresses the subjects of botany, agronomy, seed technology, genetics, and plant breeding in a cohesive manner. It is our hope that this publication will be of benefit to undergraduate and postgraduate students, educators, researchers, and other stakeholders in the agricultural sector.
