types in the world with 15 agro climatic zones varying from arid to humid tropics, hot arid deserts to
cold deserts with varying annual rainfall 11,873 mm at Mawsynram, Meghalaya to 166 mm at Jaisalmer,
Rajasthan. It is the largest producer of spices, pulses, milk, tea, cashew and jute; and the second largest
producer of wheat, rice, fruits and vegetables, sugarcane, cotton and oilseeds.

representing Department of Agriculture, Government of India, national research institutions, state
agricultural universities, corporates, international research centres and NGO groups brainstormed on the
