During the event, the Centre inked six Memoranda of Understanding with five institutions and one company. The celebration was enlivened with talk shows and exhibition on modern farming participated by over 700 participants. We awarded a Lifetime Achievement Awards to four of our scientists and Dharma Bhakti Badge Awards to 72 staff for their long-term and high dedication to the Centre.
