Abstract: Genetically pure and high-quality seeds are imperative to achieve the objective of high productivity in the agriculture sector. However, the current regulatory processes involve numerous steps and engage multiple government departments, resulting in significant delays and costs. It has badly damaged the growth and potential benefits of both agriculture and the seed sector. Different stakeholders are involved in the development and marketing of seed business considering that the seed sector is over-regulated. Due to over-regulation private sector is reluctant to invest in Research and Development of the seed sector. In the modern marketing system, the reputation of a brand is more valuable than the approvals from Federal Seed Certification and Registration Department (FSC&RD).
