Further, the certified seed of Ranjit Sub-1 and Bahadur Sub-1 has been producing in PPP mode under the Project and it helps in the dissemination of these two varieties. Established two IFS model farmers at the project site of both the district and another one at RARS, AAU, Titabor is in progress
- Received Certificate of Appreciation from Vice Chancellor, AAU for developing rice varieties Labanya and Dholi during 15th August 202
- Developed medium duration high yielding submergence tolerant rice variety, Dholi. This Sub1 introgressed line is in Ranjit background. The variety out yielded the check varieties by 15 percent. The variety was released and notified by the Central Seed Committee, Government of India during 2022
- Associated with development of HYV Surma Dhan . The variety has duration advantage over Ranjit. The variety was released and notified by the Central Seed Committee, Government of India during 202
- Developed High yielding Aromatic Purple Rice variety Labanya, sent to the PPVFRA for registration during 2021. Further, the rice of the variety will be marketed through e-commerce platform, Amazon. This is the first product of AAU to be available online. Moreover, EoI has already been floated by the university authority to give the the marketing right of this variety to Private organisations.
- Associated with the signing of the MoU between AAU-Assam Rice Research Institute, Titabar and ICAR-National Rice Research Institute, Cuttack on 13th July, 2023 for collaborative work in Research, Teaching and Extension
