SNPNEWS.IN News Update Sep 2025: A controversy between Punjab’s famous YouTuber and agricultural thinker Pargat Singh (crops information) and the American company Corteva Agriscience has become a topic of discussion.
In fact, recently, Pargat Singh shared information sent by a farmer through his Instagram and Facebook account about the results of the fungicide Glalio Way manufactured and sold by Corteva (despite the farmer spraying Glalio Way, it was claimed that “False Smut” was not prevented on the paddy crop), after which Pargat Singh shared the post on social media and asked other farmers about the results of the fungicide.
