The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) is a non-profit, non-political organization that conducts agricultural research for development in the drylands of Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. ICRISAT and its partners help empower the poor people to overcome poverty, hunger and a degraded environment through better agriculture. Headquartered in Hyderabad, Telangana state, in India, with two regional hubs (Nairobi, Kenya and Bamako, Mali) and country offices in Niger, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Ethiopia, and Mozambique, ICRISAT conducts research on five highly nutritious drough tolerant crops: chickpea, pigeonpea, pearl millet, sorghum and groundnut. In a rendezvous with Agriculture Today, Dr. David Bergvinson - Director General, ICRISAT discussed about India's seed priorities and the direction of research. |
