The government has granted approval to 11 new crop varieties developed by BAU, stating that they will support climate-resilient agriculture.
These varieties have been bred by BAU scientists to tolerate stresses such as drought, heat, and erratic rainfall, aligning with the goal of stabilizing farm output under changing climatic conditions.
Officials say the cleared seeds will be made available to farmers through existing seed distribution channels, aiming to enhance productivity and reduce vulnerability to climate shocks.
