Tapping Rice Fallows to Boost Pulses Production in India
India is globally the largest consumer of pulses with millions, particularly the poor, dependent on them for food and nutrition. It is also the largest importer of pulses and faces increasing dependence on imports as pulses ...
Harnessing food legumes for climate-smart agriculture
Food legumes are particularly suited to sustainable agriculture. ICARDA is developing and disseminating improved varieties and production technologies so farmers can benefit from the increasing demand for these climate-smart ...
Develop high biomass OPVs and hybrids
Develop at least 5 high biomass (green and dry biomass with better forage quality for forage; and dry biomass at maturity for biofuel purpose) OPVs and hybrids (top cross/ three way cross); and develop at least 5 A-/B- ...
Selections in segregating breeding materials in target ecologies for enhancing drought and heat tolerance
Brief on Selections in segregating breeding materials in target ecologies (western Rajasthan for drought during rainy season; Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh for heat stress during summer season) for enhancing drought and heat ...
