The National Agricultural Seeds Council, NASC, on Friday, expressed optimism over a policy document on seeds production and management to serve as a reference point in identifying varieties.
This was expressed in an address by the Director-General, NASC, Dr Philip Ojo, at a one-day ‘Stakeholders’ Review and Validation Workshop on the Draft National Descriptors for Select Varieties of Maize, Rice and Soybean’ held in Abuja.
Ojo explained that the essence of the workshop is to review, validate and adopt the document that will enhance production and management of seed fields, where it will assist in accurately and appropriately reporting and identifying seed varieties.
