The objective of seed testing is to determine the quality and potential of a seed lot, which can then in turn be used to compare the quality of different seed lots and also estimate field planting values. Therefore, to meet these standards a well-equipped and internationally accredited Seed Testing Laboratory was needed. Therefore, this Lab was got accredited for ISO/IEC 17025:2005 in 2018.

After scope extension of the lab for other tests, provision of quality seed to the farmers will be ensured.
