Karnataka may soon fall off the organic cotton map owing to shortage of non-Bt cotton seeds and contamination of traditional seeds. As a result, a major organic cotton belt such as H.D. Kote in Mysore district may very well be transformed into a Bt cotton area much to the chagrin of organic farmers, who are peeved over the non-availability of DCH-32, Varalakshmi , MCU, Surabhi and Jaidhar brands of non-Bt seeds.
