Sustainable agriculture division of TERI envisions to offering new products and advanced technological services for farm profitability by leveraging our expertise, strengths and experiences in applied cutting-edge research, innovations and education. The end goal is to educate and empower agricultural community to achieve higher economic benefits through greater societal engagements and promotion of small farmer entrepreneurship while ensuring sustainability and conservation of natural resources.
Our works include products & technology development, cutting-edge research & innovations, policy research and implementation in areas of water, energy, soil and alternative farming systems
PCR based molecular markers have been widely used in the field of biodiversity conservation, crop improvement and health.
Our team has a rich experience of new product development and quality improvement of existing products.
This next generation microencapsulation technology of TERI for nodulatingrhizobacteria (non-sporulating bacteria) species
The TERI-Deakin Nanobiotechnology Centre (TDNBC) is offereing Sophisticated Instrumentation facilities which go a long way in improving the quality of research being carried out in the Research Institutes, Universities and Industries.
Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi (AMF) are vital components of the microbial soil community, forming the most commonly occurring underground network, probably the oldest and largest symbiotic association between the roots of more than 80% of all terrestrial plant species.
In view of the stark reality of increasing demand for food production, food security, and nutrient deficiency, Mycorrhiza will in the future play a key role in sustainable agriculture owing to its contribution to the plant apropos to phosphorous nutrition.
