The present annual report 2005-06 highlights some of the glimpses of the research achievements made, new methodologies developed, significant advisory and consultancy services provided, dissemination of knowledge acquired and human resource development, linkages cultivated/ nurtured with various ICAR Institutes, SAUs and other research organisations in India and abroad. The scientists, technical personnel, administrative, finance and other staff of the institute have put in their best efforts in fulfilling the mandate of the institute and also in achieving the targets set during the year. The Institute initiated various new studies/projects during the year. These are- ‘Crop forecasting using state space models’, ‘Development of PERMISnet-II’ and ‘Effect of selection and incomplete model specification on heritability’. The Institute also initiated some outside funded projects on - ‘Assessment of survey capabilities of private sector’ and ‘Pilot study to develop an alternative methodology for estimation of area and production of horticultural crops’. The Institute also undertook a CSO sponsored project on the preparation of manuals on `Area and crop production statistics’; ‘Animal husbandry statistics’; ‘Agricultural prices and marketing’; ‘Cost of cultivation surveys’, and ‘Horticulture and spices statistics’. A Brain Storming Session on ‘Statistical Issues in Rapeseed-Mustard Trials’ in collaboration with National Research Centre on Rapeseed-Mustard was also organised. The Institute also provided consultancy services to various research studies/projects in NARS.A lead paper entitled ‘Fertiliser Response Ratios’ analysing the crop-fertiliser ratios for various crops in different regions of the country, was presented during Brain Storming Session on Declining Crop Responses to Fertilisers. In a bid to evolve efficient design of experiments for quality agricultural research, a comprehensive catalogue of A-efficient α-designs was prepared. Some of faculty members received academic distinctions during the year. Dr. VK Gupta received ICAR National Professor Award for his contributions in the field of Agricultural Statistics to work in the project entitled ‘Designs for single factor and multifactor experiments and their applications in agricultural systems research’. Dr. VK Gupta was also awarded Prof. PV Sukhatme Gold Medal Award for outstanding contributions in Agricultural Statistics from Indian Society of Agricultural Statistics, New Delhi. Dr. Rajender Parsad, National Fellow was awarded Dr. DN Lal Memorial Lecture Award from Indian Society of Agricultural Statistics, New Delhi.
