Sources for variety multiplication is one of the thrust of SRA. Here in Tarlac, HYV's are becoming very limited due to numerous factors in general, it may be there are limited number of takers as a result limited areas where seen where HYV could showcase its performance, it is may be due to the availability of the seedpieces in the area. Here in Tarlac the prominent HYV's are 80 series varieties, there is a need to update the said variety to create and discover a much vigorous crop adaptable to the climatic and soil condition of Tarlac.
To answer these situation our station in LAREC, Floridablanca gave new HYV's (90 series released varieties) for propagation to CAT last March 2009. Around 14 varieties were given just enough to start the multiplication or the nursery for the said variety.
