Completed Research Activities
- Disseminate the learning and practices of past R&D activities at farmer’s fields to enhance crop productivity and profitability at farm level.
- 1000 acre seed of newly approved varieties dully certified and tagged by FSC&RD were provided to the seed multiplying agencies and progressive farmers.
- Develop and evaluate, in partnership with farmers, site specific village based seed production and dissemination system to facilitate access to improved varieties.
- Promotion of Gram Cultivation through Life Saving Irrigation with Sprinkler System under Changing Climate alongwith R&D activities at farm families were carried out
- Genetic improvement of chickpea for better nodulation, root length and yield through hybridization and mutation breeding.
- Enhancement of mungbean and gram production in Thal through development of improved genotypes and technologies to reduce pulse import bill
