3. WHAT IS ICAR The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is an autonomous organization under the Department of Agricultural Research and Education (DARE), Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare , Government of India ICAR stands for INDIAN COUNCIL OF AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH The Council is the apex body for coordinating , guiding and managing research and education in agriculture including horticulture, fisheries and animal sciences in the entire country

4.   It was established on 16 July 1929  as a registered society under the Societies Registration Act ICAR has its headquarters at New Delhi . Minister of agriculture is the president of ICAR With  101 ICAR institutes and 71 agricultural universities  spread across the country this is one of the largest national agricultural systems in the world

8. DIVISIONS OF ICAR CROP SCIENCE FISHERIES SCIENCE ANIMAL SCIENCE AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AGRICUTURAL ENGINEERING HORTICUTURAL SCIENCE

9. CROP SCIENCE Harnessing conventional and modern scientific knowledge, tools, and cutting-edge of science for development of improved crop varieties/hybrids suited to diverse agro-ecologies and situations, and efficient, economic, eco-friendly and sustainable crop production Conservation and sustainable use of genetic resources of plants, insects and other invertebrates, and agriculturally important microorganisms Refinement of seed-production technologies and production of breeder seed with added emphasis on hybrid cultivars

10. HORTICULTURE SCIENCE Horticulture Division vested with the responsibility of overseeing the overall accelerated development of horticulture in national perspective for improving nutritional, ecological and livelihood security . Enhancing the shelf life of perishable fruits, vegetables, flowers. Increasing the value of production by reducing variability in yield, quality, reducing crop loss and increasing marketability Developing system for productive use of nutrients, water and reducing impact of pest through the use of innovative diagnostic techniques . Develop the production system that minimizes the production of wastes and maximizes the re-use of waste.

11. FISHERIES SCIENCE Sustainable growth of Indian fisheries and aquaculture by interfacing research, education and extension resulting in a proper fit between the human needs and the habitat, with an important role in global fisheries. Development of diagnostics, vaccines and disease management measures for current and emerging diseases . Development of diagnostics, vaccines and disease management measures for current and emerging diseases. Breeding and rearing of ornamental fin fishes and shellfishes of freshwater and marine origin. Reduction of harvest and post-harvest losses of fish through mitigation measures.

12. ANIMAL SCIENCE Development of technologies to support production enhancement, profitability, competitiveness and sustainability of livestock and poultry sector for providing food and nutritional security to Indian masses. Development of diagnostics and immune-prophylactics for various diseases using biotech and nanotech tools Development and improvement of technologies for value addition, shelf life enhancement and quality assurance of livestock and poultry products Monitoring and surveillance of animal diseases including transboundary and zoonotic diseases

13. MANAGEMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Sustainable management of natural resources for achieving food, nutritional, environmental and livelihood security in the country. Land Resource Inventory, Characterization & Agricultural Land Use Planning Integrated Water Management & Waste Water Utilization Nutrient and Bio-waste Management Climate Resilient Agriculture and abiotic stress management

14.   Strengthening and streamlining of higher agricultural education system to enhance the quality of human resources in agri -supply chain to meet future challenges in agriculture sector in the country Plan, promote and coordinate agricultural education in the country. Enhance the quality and relevance of higher agricultural education in the country. Strengthen the Agricultural University system for developing quality human resource in agriculture and allied sciences

15. To make Indian agriculture sustainable, profitable and competitive enterprise through engineering interventions of farm mechanization, value addition and energy management in production and post-harvest operations. Increasing work efficiency for human, animal and mechanical systems and reduction of occupational hazards in agricultural operations. Development of precision machinery and strategies for carrying out timely and efficient agricultural operations in irrigated, rain-fed and hill agriculture, horticulture, livestock and fisheries production. Application of robotics and drones in production agriculture, electromagnetic waves in food processing.

18. 1 2 3 4 5 ICAR scientist were the first in the world to sequence the pigeon pea genome. It was a purely indigenous effort by 31 scientists ICAR developed a vaccine against birds flu. Vaccine was developed at high security animal disease laboratory ICAR helped country to increase the production of food grains by 5.4 times, horticultural crops by 10.1 times, fish by 15.2 times, milk 9.7 times and eggs 48.1 times since 1951 to 2017 Developed and released nearly 3,300 high-yielding varieties/hybrids of field crops for different agro-ecologies A total of 1,596 high yielding varieties and hybrids of horticultural crops were developed.
