Department Of Agricultural Botany Post Graduate Institute
Department of Agricultural BotanyPost Graduate InstituteMahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri- 413 722Dist. Ahmednagar (MS)PreambleThe Department of Agricultural Botany is a century age old and has outstandingcontribution at its credit during this era. Especially the condition of the state and country before1960s of feeding burgeoning population with begging bowl was totally transformed to selfsufficiency by green revolution across the country with pivotal role in crop improvement.It is responsible for evolving new high yielding varieties/hybrids of the crops, the very back boneof agriculture which are responsible for agricultural revolution. There are four disciplinescovering Genetic and Plant Breeding, Plant Physiology, Seed Science and Technology andAgricultural Biotechnology which have their respective teaching, research and extensioneducation activities. The department has been strengthened for advanced research ventures tomeet the challenges of the 21 st century by establishing of well equipped State LevelBiotechnology Centre.Mandates To offer courses of Agricultural Botany for the undergraduate degree programmes in theFaculty of Agriculture. In the faculty of Agriculture.To offer courses of Agricultural Botany for M.Sc. (Agri.) and Ph. D in Genetics and PlantBreeding, Plant Physiology, Seed Sci. & Technology and Agricultural Biotechnology.To undertake basic, strategic applied research programmes through post graduate students inthe department.Crop improvement programme planning for increasing the productivity and strengthening theconcepts of Agricultural Botany.Conventions of seminars, symposia and conferences for exchange of Scientific Information.To cater the technological needs of the State Agriculture Departments in respect of transferof advanced technology, improved crop varieties, seed production and distribution etc.through training, AIR and TV programmes, farmer’s rallies, field demonstrations andpublished literature.1
