This nationwide study on Paddy and Vegetables                    estimates the quantum of the consumption of seeds, the quantum 
                    of different types of seeds used in terms of Public and 
                    Proprietary hybrids etc. and the contribution of various

                      In addition to the above, the report also ascertains 
                        the yield / expected yield from the seeds used, and in 
                        the case of paddy farmers, ascertains the type of seeds 
                        used, by way of Aromatic, Super fine, Fine, Medium and
