To conduct research on different agronomic practices to increase resource use efficiency without diminishing crop yields.
To conduct research on means and methods of mitigating ill effects of biotic and abiotic stresses on major field crops.
To start research on alternate high value crops e.g. medicinal plants and spices (Quinoa, Stevia, Fennel, Psyllium, Nigella, Carom, Tulsi and Linseed)
To study the agronomic and physiological based measures to minimize the detrimental effects of changing climate on growth, development and yield of major field crops.
