Seed production and distribution of cereals, grain legumes and oilseed crops conducted in 1994/95 are summarized. A total of 19104.7 kg seed of the mandate crops was produced at Lumle Centre, Testing Site Shera and Off-Station Research Sites. Foundation seed production of wheat, rapeseed, maize and rice was the most important. Similarly, 524 kg breeder's and 13666.2 kg foundation seed of 11 crops was distributed to relevant seed multiplying agencies during this period. However, wheat, rapeseed, maize and rice foundation seed distribution was in major. Seed of promising lines from advanced trials of self-pollinated crops was collected and micro-plot seed multiplication of promising varieties was done, as appropriate. Initial seed increase of the crop varieties for which Lumle Agricultural Research Centre has been designated as resource centre was also done.
