Analysis of the problems affecting Russia vegetable seeds supply

With the adoption of Federal Law No. 454-FL of December 30, 2021 «On Seed Production» and related regulations, financial and administrative pressure on all operators of the vegetable crop breeding and seed production market has significantly increased. Today, for example, the members of the AIRSC feel regulatory instability in the field of vegetable crop breeding and seed production, excessive requirements in the field of plant quarantine, as well as bureaucratic pressure from regulatory authorities at all stages of production, import, export and sale of seeds. In this regard, the protection of the interests of the community of breeders and seed growers of vegetable crops on the sites of government organizations and institutions is becoming very important. Measures that are necessary: the restriction of price increases for mandatory services of the Federal State Budgetary Institutions subordinate to the Rosselkhoznadzor; the removal of administrative barriers caused by the imposition of illegal sanctions against the Russian Federation by unfriendly states when importing and exporting batches of seeds from the Russian Federation; interaction with authorized structures of the Federation Council and the State Duma to promote legislative initiatives of the Association's participants; reforming the activities of the Federal State Budgetary Institution «State Commission»; exclusion of seed storage sites from State control; eliminating the need for genetic control each time during seed quality certification; overcoming the barriers created by the introduction of the Federal State Information System «Seed Production» and eliminating the shortcomings of this information system; improving a number of articles and provisions of Federal Law No. 454-FL, taking into account the specifics of the vegetable crop breeding and seed production industry; improving state support measures for the vegetable crop breeding and seed production industry. The purpose of this article is to analyze the problems of the community of plant breeders and seed growers of vegetable crops that arise on the sites of government organizations and institutions, as well as to find ways to form an effective market for vegetable seeds in Russia.
