Launching innovative possibilities in Agri - Food Research

Agri Biotechnology

The modern world perceives the transition from agrochemicals to Agro-biotechnology where novel concepts to improve agriculture and post harvest management are being devised using cutting edge technologies of biotechnology, microbiology, biomaterial science, bioinformatics and closely studying the biochemical and molecular switching.

We are a team working up to materialize the latest developments in biotechnology and other fields to instigate green technologies which can help improve crop yields, eliminate or minimize pesticide use and offer more effective and safer post harvest management.

The pipeline products under R& D…

BIHS

A novel concept for preventing post harvest infestations in cereals, grains etc,. in storage barns and warehouses keeping out carcinogenic and mutagenic chemicals and insecticides. Exploiting the insecticidal activity of various phytochemicals and essential oil in a sustained manner.

CRMAS - COAT

A novel platform using nontoxic formulations to shield the agricultural product from insect infestation and microbial contamination. The edibility cut shorts secondary by products and wastes.

BIO-iCLOUD Program

Big data analytics and cloud computing along with biological expertise is proved to accelerate agricultural activities and the challenges can be tackled. Bio-icloud is a innovative program from CRMAS targeted to aggregate data from tools like soil sensors, satellite images and weather stations which can aid farmers in better management of their crops with more productivity. Even though cloud agriculture is in state of infancy, technological adaptation can the radically change the concept of large scale farming.

Other Products
