The government wants to make a new rule to stop the sale of bad seeds and pesticides.
Sometimes, farmers get seeds and pesticides that are not good, which hurts their crops.

This law might be introduced soon in Parliament.
The goal is to help farmers grow better crops and reduce the problems they face.
A new, stringent law against substandard seeds and pesticides is being prepared by the central government.
The proposed legislation aims to curb the sale of poor-quality farm inputs.
Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan made the announcement.
