Yesterday’s visit to KALASH SEEDS PVT INDIA delivered a masterclass in what serious commitment to the seed industry actually means. This leading vegetable seeds company didn’t just talk the talk—their sprawling showcase of over 100 vegetable seed varieties, AI-powered seed processing equipment, cutting-edge biotechnology lab, pathology facilities, and ISTA-accredited seed laboratory paints a picture of an industry that means business.

The massive infrastructure and seed development investments on display stand in stark contrast to Ghana’s seed sector, where celebrations too often honor the wrong people. While India pushes boundaries with technology and innovation, Ghana’s seed associations and companies waste time elevating fraudsters and aging figureheads who’ve contributed little to actual industry growth.

The harsh truth? Some of these celebrated “leaders” have actively supported the bad actors strangling Ghana’s seed industry, keeping it malnourished when it should be thriving.
KALASH SEEDS proves that transforming a seed industry requires more than ceremonies and empty titles—it demands vision, investment, and the courage to build something real.
