Seed Regulatory Systems

Seed regulatory systems are frameworks set up by governments and agencies to ensure the quality, safety, and performance of seeds used in agriculture. They involve rules and standards for seed production, testing, and marketing, aiming to protect farmers and consumers by ensuring that seeds meet certain criteria for traits like germination and disease resistance. These systems also help prevent the spread of invasive species and support sustainable agriculture by promoting the use of improved seed varieties. Effective regulation ensures that the seeds available to farmers contribute positively to food security and agricultural productivity.
