This is Dr V Arunachalam from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) Complex at Goa, India. I''ve been involved in production of seeds and planting materials of horticultural crops. 

I found the messages interesting and useful especially the specific protocols in Message 8 by Dr John Mayne for natural resource management (NRM) research. I found them very specific. But I did not find such specific protocols for seed and planting materials. I would be grateful to know whether such specific protocols exist for seeds and planting materials of improved/local varieties. Because, seed or planting material plays a major role in improving productivity but to analyse the impact partitioning due to seed only is a crucial question. Please suggest to me techniques to address the issues in this situation.
