The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is prioritizing both operational efficiency and sustainable practices across its network of institutes. Recent initiatives include a review of domain-specific course development on the iGOT Karmayogi platform to enhance employee skills and improve ICAR's national ranking, alongside extensive cleanliness campaigns like Swachhata Hi Seva 2026 and Special Campaign 6.0, which involved waste management, plantation drives, and file disposal. Furthermore, ICAR has partnered with the Food Corporation of India (FCI) to research safer, more sustainable grain storage solutions, aiming to replace traditional fumigation methods with alternatives like nitrogen gas and CO2. These efforts collectively signal ICAR's commitment to modernization, environmental responsibility, and bolstering India's agricultural sector.
