ICAR-Directorate of Rapeseed & Mustard Research

The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) established the National Research Centre on Rapeseed-Mustard (NRCRM) to carry out basic, strategic and applied research on rapeseed mustard. Besides, generating basic knowledge and material, it also engages in developing ecologically sound and economically viable agro production and protection technologies. The Centre has also the responsibility to plan, coordinate and execute the research programmes through a wide network of 22 main and sub-centres across the country, to augment the production and productivity of rapeseed mustard.
