    The Seed Certification Agency is to ensure seed of superior crop plant variety available to farmers through seed certification. The Agency verifies:-
    1. Genetical identity of a variety with respect to its
    distinctness, uniformity and stability parameters.
    2. High degree of physical purity.
    3. High standards of germinability to give rise to vigorous seedlings.
    4. Freedom from all designated seed borne diseases, weeds and other crop seeds, thereby qualifying the minimum prescribed standards, which should be ascertainable under field and laboratory condition.

    GENERAL REMARKS:
    At the time of establishing independent Seed Certification Agencies, it was envisaged that within a period of five years the Agency would be self-supporting from their receipts to be obtained from different seed
    producing agencies. But during last 30 years, it could not be possible to make Odisha State Seed & Organic Products Certification Agency self- supported as the area under seed production has not increased proportionately.
    Considering this aspect and with an aim to achieve more area under seed production, the Agency has launched a programme for establishing Private Seed Industry under the Industrial Policy Resolution of State Govt., October 1992. Participation of more than 50 Private Seed Entrepreneurs may bring a large area under seed production and existing income of Odisha State Seed & Organic Products Certification Agency will thereby increase in future. In addition, a massive programme under Special Seed Village Scheme of GOI has been launched to attract and involve more growers for Seed Production & Certification.
