Seed supply itself is rather similar: it involves a series of different activities linking together the research station which produced the variety and the farmers who eventually use it. These collectively form a bridge ( or chain) between research and agriculture and they represent a 'seed supply system' in which different activities are inter­dependent. A failure or weakness at any point can affect the whole seed chain.
