About Us
The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), founded in 1929, and the state agricultural universities as part of the national agricultural research system have played a pivotal role in advancing scientific research.
Research efforts need to be enhanced on plant root biology, enhancing photosynthetic carbon capturing capacity.
The synergy between basic plant sciences and cutting-edge technologies such as precision agriculture, regenerative agriculture, conservation agriculture, remote-sensing techniques, advanced biotechnological tools and AI-driven models forms the foundation of sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture.
