Summary
The Green Cotton/Seeding the Green Future project began in 2013 and works to close gaps in India’s organic cotton value chain. Local traders hardly offer GMO-free cotton seeds anymore, which endangers smallholder farmers' income security and seed sovereignty. Therefore, the project aims to expand the supply of robust, genetically unmodified seed. Eight varieties are already being grown on an experimental basis.
