About this variety
Pusa Selection is a coriander variety attributed to IARI, New Delhi by its name — this is genuinely thin: despite several targeted searches this phase, no source specifically documented "Pusa Selection" by that exact name, distinct from other IARI coriander releases such as Pusa 360 (a dual leaf-and-seed variety). No parentage, release year, or independently sourced yield/duration figures were found.
