| dc.description.abstract | Rice is India’s prominent crop and staple food for the native population of eastern and southern part of the country.The good seed in a good field produces abundantly.The present study is an initiative to analyse the impact of quality seed on productivity in Bihar. The objectives of the study was to analyze the supply chain of quality paddy seed in public and private sector, examine the factors responsible for increase in paddy productivity and analyze the socio-economic impact of increased paddy productivity on farmers. The data was collected from 120 farmers of Samastipur and Muzzafarpur districts of Bihar state. The major findings of the study are the supply chain of paddy was more integrated in private sector than in public sector. The flow of seeds in chain was continuous in public sector where as in the case of private sector it was broken. Quality seed followed by seed replacement rate are two major factors influenced paddy productivity. Little more than half of the paddy growers replace the seeds once in three years. The socio-economic impact of growers’ sown hybrid seeds were found better than high yielding variety growers. The annual income of hybrid paddy growers was higher than farmers growing high yielding varieties with difference in the mean score of 0.85.There is a need to make the availability of quality seeds and strengthen the supply chain. | en_US |
