Furthermore, the assignment of the chairs to all students is completed within 1-2 months and their advisory committee constituted along with PPW submission. These MGMG teams compulsorily visit these adopted villages to demonstrate their technologies for the benefit of the farmers. Majority of the academic meetings are held by the faculty members using these online platforms.
The institute emphasizes the innovative online teaching methods developed by faculty members while awarding the institute's best teacher award. All students are informed about the goals and expected results of their education upon admission during the orientation program.

The office of the Institute for Radiological Safety, which operates, takes care of the acquisition of radioisotopes and biomolecules for research, the regular collection of waste and their safe disposal in a designated protected area. All of them coexist in absolutely peaceful, friendly relations with harmony since the establishment of the institute more than a century ago. The socio-cultural organization also provides education to the children of workers who work in various construction works of IARI.
Soil Testing Services”: The guidelines are followed and put into practice in the right spirit for providing the services of the institute laboratory for testing soil and water quality. Every year in February, a week-long convocation program of the Institute's PG School is organized which includes presentation of important research by postgraduate students, presentation of important teaching achievements by professors of various disciplines, lectures by the recipients of institute awards and Lal Bahadur Shastri memorial lecture. The festivals like Diwali, Durga Puja, Ganesh Chaturthi and Saraswati Puja, Muharram and Eid are observed with great enthusiasm by the faculty and students of various states.

IARI Best Practice
Title of practice: PUSA Decomposer Technology for agri-waste management
The Pusa Decomposer plays an important role in the decomposition of paddy straw in situ and ex-situ. For on-site management, harvesting paddy straw with a combine followed by a chopper and mulcher and spraying Pusa Decomposer followed by a rotator and light irrigation to keep the field moist showed accelerated decomposition of paddy straw and allowed the farmer to sow wheat on time . It accelerates the decomposition process of paddy straw and prepares the field for sowing wheat in 25 days.
By 2021, ICAR-IARI in collaboration with a company is preparing to bring about >6000 acres under the Pusa Decomposer spray in Punjab alone where 25,000 farmers have been selected to participate. The technology has been licensed to 10 companies, each keen to help the farmer reduce straw burning by mass producing the Pusa Decomposer product and making it readily available. Therefore, the Pusa Decomposer is a long-term sustainable solution for handling paddy straw in connection with machinery.
Problems encountered The very first problem is due to different farm sizes mainly small < 5 hectares to large > 100 hectares, the exact following of SOP for Pusa decomposer is not maintained by all the farmers.
Title of practice: Off-grid, batteryless PUSA farm sunfridge technology
- Institutional Distinctiveness
- CONCLUSION
90 of the farmers said that the stubble and straw were decomposed within 15-20 days, whereas earlier it took 50-60 days. B2 Context High post-harvest losses, especially due to high ambient temperatures during the summer season, lack of adequate cold storage facilities and unreliable intermittent power supply in farmers' fields are some of the challenges faced by smallholder farmers in India. Several Farm Sun Fridges are to be built as demonstration units in different agro-climatic zones of India so that farmers and retailers can have first-hand knowledge and hands-on experience of operating these off-grid battery-less freezers.
The Institute's genomics-assisted analytical breeding programs accelerated the pace of crop breeding and led to the release of varieties/hybrids with improved yield, quality and climate resilience in field and horticultural crops. The Basmati 1121 well developed by the Institute earned 50 lakh crores during and brought prosperity to millions of farmers. IARI has made a breakthrough in the development and popularization of Pusa Decomposer, a fungal consortium, for in-situ and ex-situ plant residue decomposition, which will help mitigate the problem of rice residue burning and air pollution, as well as increasing soil fertility.
The 57th Convocation of the Postgraduate School of the IARI was held on 8 February 2019.
