Tissue Culture
Tissue Culture is the technology for rapid propagation of plants using tissue of selected mother plants with desirable traits wherein large no of true to type plants can be produced under controlled conditions in Laboratory.
- SARDAR is pioneer in Tissue Culture production for Banana in Gujarat, established in 1994-95 with initial capacity of one lakh plants.
- An Accredited Tissue Culture Production Laboratory, by Department of Biotechnology, Govt of India under NCS-TCP.
- Current production capacity is 40 lakh plants.
- Large scale produces- Banana (Robusta & Grand Naine) and Sugarcane (Co 86032)
- Recently launched product Parwal: (variety Anawal)
- Coming soon product Pomegranate: Variety (Bhagwa)
