The Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research (acronym IISR)〔(IISR, what does IISR stand for - Acronym Attic )〕 is an autonomous institute of higher learning, established under the umbrella of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR)〔(ICAR Institutions, Deemed Universities, National Research Centres, National Bureaux & Directorate/Project Directorates | Indian Council of Agricultural Research )〕 by the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India for advanced research in sugar cane agriculture. The Institute is located on Raibareli Road, Dilkusha in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. == Profile == The Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research (IISR) owes its origin to the recommendations of the now defunct ''Indian Central Sugarcane Committee'' for introducing advanced research on basic and applied sugar cane cultivation and dissemination of information across the country. The institute was established in 1952〔(Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research, Lucknow: Envisioning improved sugarcane production technology for high yields and high sugar recovery in India - Springer )〕 as a subsidiary of the Indian Central Sugarcane Committee but was brought directly under the Government of India on 1 January 1954〔(Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research Lucknow at a glance - YouTube )〕 and later entrusted to the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) on 1 April 1969 along with other agriculture based research institutions were brought under ICAR. The Institute is an ISO 9001 accredited agency and has three regional stations for nationwide coverage of its activities. ISR Regional Centre, Motipur, Muzaffarpur, Bihar:〔(Regional Centre, Motipur, Muzaffarpur (Bihar) of Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research celebrated Silver jubilee | Indian Council of Agricultural Research )〕 The Centre was the research station of the ''Sugarcane Breeding Institute'', Coimbatore when it was established in 1988 but was brought under IISR on 25 April 2004. The Centre focusses its attention on the development of various sugarcane varieties, evaluation of waterlogging tolerance of elite materials, red rot resistance and mechanization of sugarcane production. The Centre has developed various varieties of sugarcane for distribution and is involved in breeder seed development of improved varieties. Sugarbeet Research and Development at Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research, Lucknow: This Institute is also specialised for sugarbeet, which has wide tolerance levels and is cultivable for extended seasons. The centre has developed various agrotechniques for tropical and subtropical cultivation of sugarbeet, developed mechanized methods of sowing, crop raising and harvesting and standardised seed production technology. The centre also maintains training facilities on maintenance of germplasm, seed production, root crop production, plant protection and region-specific mechanization. The third regional station of IISR is located at Biological Control Centre, Pravaranagar in Maharashtra. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Indian Institute of Sugarcane Research」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
