About the department/Section

Directorate of Research of the University was established in March 1975 with mandate of Planning, Execution, Monitoring, Co-ordination, Evaluation and Impact Assessment of Research Programmes across the Faculties to  cater the research needs of three agro-climatic zones of state of Uttar Pradesh namely, South-Western Semi- Arid, Central plain and Bundelkhand zones  covering 29 districts of seven  administrative divisions viz: Lucknow, Kanpur, Allahabad, Jhansi,  Chitrokoot Dham, Aligarh and Agra. Four Research Sections (Rabi Cereals, Oilseeds, Legumes and Vegetables), three regional research stations (Daleepnagar Kanpur, Kalai- Aligarh & Bharari- Jhansi) and their five sub stations (Saini-Kaushambi, Mainpuri, Hazratpur-Firozabad, Belatal- Mahoba & Mawai Bujurg- Banda) and fourteen research farms are mandated and equipped to undertake the location specific, problem solving and production oriented multi disciplinary researches and to develop technology suited for different agro-climatic regions.The University has a long history of significant research contributions made by the well established faculties, research sections, regional stations and research farms and developed more than 275 high yielding varieties in cereals, oilseeds, pulses, vegetables and important others crops.
