Answer: (a) she worked for preserving seeds of native cultivars through ‘Kalasubai Parisar Biyane Samvardhan Samiti’.

Rahibai Popere, a tribal woman farmer from Ahmednagar district, is known as the ‘Seed Mother’. Through the Kalsubai Parisar Biyane Samvardhan Samiti she preserved seeds of many native varieties of crops and taught farmers to use them. For this she received the Nari Shakti Award (2018) and later the Padma Shri.
