Training Programme on Hybrid Seed Production Technologyin Field CropsSeptember 26th-30th, 2011Organized byAcharya N G Ranga Agricultural UniversityHyderabad-500030
Rice, Maize, Jowar, Bajra, and Sunflower are the important field crops where hybrid technology has been exploited on a commercial scale. Seed Production technology for hybrids is one of the important components of exploitation of yield potential. There is a tremendous potential to further tap hybrid technology for achieving quantum jump in productivity. Also redgram is an important pulse crop where large scale seed production is taken up. Further for enhancing the crop productivity improved seed production techniques has to be followed. This training programme is aimed at providing the hands on experience in the seed production technology on field crops to train the personnel involved in seed production.
