The Odisha government has established a committee called the Landrace Varietal Release Committee (LVRC) to release traditional millet varieties in accordance with standard operating protocols (SoP) for seed systems.
With the newly formed 'Landrace Variety Release Committee' (LVRC), Odisha has become the first state in India to develop a protocol for releasing indigenous millet varieties protected by tribal farmers for centuries.
The Odisha Millets Mission (OMM), a flagship programme launched in 2017-18 to comprehensively revive millets in the state, has conducted a series of participatory varieties trials (PVTs) in collaboration with patron farmers, local non-profits and technical experts.
