(a)शासकीय शास्त्रज्ञ आता ते स्वतः करीत आहेत / Govt. scientists want to take it upon themselves.
(b)खाजगी कंपन्या हे काम आपल्या लाभासाठी करत आहेत. / Private companies undertake plant breeding for their interests
(c)शेतकरी दुसऱ्या कामात व्यग्र आहेत. / The farmers are busy otherwise.
(d)शेतकऱ्यांना आपली जमीन दुसऱ्या कामासाठी वापरायची आहे. / The farmers want to put their land to other use.
In industrialized nations, traditional on-farm plant breeding has declined because government scientists, private seed corporations, busy schedules, and land-use diversification have all collectively shifted the landscape.
