As Uttar Pradesh prepares for Rabi sowing, KRIBHCO supplies around 80,000 quintals of certified wheat seed to farmers annually, while offering seed growers Rs. 200 per quintal above MSP.
The cooperative also supports farmers through fertiliser supplies, training and village-level networks.

On #WorldCottonDay, our Editor Dr Navneet Anand writes on India's cotton story and what it should teach us.
In 2002, one approval changed Indian farming. Bt cotton nearly tripled output, from 1.4 crore to 4 crore bales, and turned an importer into the world's largest producer.
Then the momentum stalled. No new GM trait has been approved since 2006. Yields have slipped below 450 kg a hectare, and imports have doubled.
Farmers haven't waited. A new SABC study supported by FSII and NSAI finds illegal HTBt cotton on 24тАУ30% of India's cotton area, feeding a Rs 1500 crore black market.
The same logic applies to edible oil, where India spends Rs 1.61 lakh crore a year on imports while GM mustard waits.
Twenty years on, it is time to revisit the case for crop technology.

FSSAI has ordered the recall of a specific batch of Everest pre-packed cumin powder after tests found pesticide residues above the prescribed limits.
In a separate action, the food regulator also suspended the licence of Creative Bakers and Confectioners over serious hygiene and sanitation deficiencies.
