The tag for Breeders Seed is issued by:
Show Hint
- Breeders Seed: Issued by breeder.
- Foundation Seed: Issued by certification agency.
- Certified Seed: Issued by certification agency.
- Tag color: Golden brown (Breeders), White (Foundation), Azure blue (Certified).
- State Seed Certification Agency
- Central Seed Certification Agency
- Concerned Breeder of the variety
- Independent organization operated under the state government
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
This question tests knowledge of seed certification and tag issuance.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
The tag for Breeders Seed is issued by the concerned breeder of the variety (C).
Breeders Seed is the first stage of seed production.
It is produced by the breeder who developed the variety.
The tag is a guarantee of genetic purity.
Other classes of seed and tag issuance:
- Foundation Seed: Issued by State Seed Certification Agency.
- Certified Seed: Issued by State Seed Certification Agency.
Thus, the Breeders Seed tag is issued by the breeder.
Step 3: Final Answer:
Thus, the tag for Breeders Seed is issued by the concerned breeder of the variety, which corresponds to option (C).
