Sivaganga Sivaganga Collector P. Madhusudhan Reddy has urged the organic farmers in the region to register their native seed varieties with the seed certification officials to get more recognition in the market. While speaking at an event organised by the Vaiyai Organic Farmers Federation at Keeladi in the district on Sunday, he said, "People like Nammalvar and Nel Jayaraman have taken plenty of steps to reform organic farming and re-launch many native seed varieties. It is nice to see farmers of this region coming together to preserve the native seeds here."More Related News
