The Establish is located on Raibareli Road, Dilkusha (Post Office) in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. While, The Central Sugarcane Research Institute established in 1912 is located in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. It works as well under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research.

Profile [edit]

The Indian Establish of Sugarcane Research (IISR) owes its origin to the recommendations of the erstwhile The Indian Central Sugarcane Committee for advanced enquiry on all aspects of sugarcane cultivation except breeding and coordination of sugarcane researches across the country. The foundation stone of the institute was laid on sixteen February 1952^[iii] under the administrative command of the Indian Central Sugarcane Committee. It was brought direct nether the Authorities of India on 1 January 1954^[4] and afterwards on it was entrusted to the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) on ane April 1969 along with other agriculture based research institutions.

The Institute is an ISO 9001 accredited bureau and has three regional stations for nationwide coverage of its activities.

IISR Regional Eye, Motipur, Muzaffarpur, Bihar:^[v] The Middle was the research station of the Sugarcane Convenance Plant, Coimbatore when it was established in 1988 but was brought nether IISR on 25 Apr 2004. The Eye focuses its attention on the development of sugarcane varieties, evaluation of waterlogging tolerance, red rot resistance and mechanization of sugarcane cultivation.

The Center has developed several varieties of sugarcane for distribution and is involved in breeder seed development of improved varieties.

The Plant had iv sections, Agronomy, Sugarcane Mycology, Sugarcane Entomology and Agricultural Engineering science, when it started in 1952. Four years later, two more than sections, Soil Scientific discipline and Agricultural Chemistry and Plant Physiology, were added. One more department, Botany and Breeding came into existence in 1969. In 2001, two exiting divisions Establish Pathology and Entomology were merged to form the Segmentation of Crop Protection.

The Basic objective of the Division is to conduct advanced research on diseases and pest direction of sugarcane and other sugar crops. The Sectionalisation concentrates on areas such as Plant Pathology with special accent on Colletotrichum falcatum, techniques for inducing resistance for sugarcane, utilise of bio-agents against crop diseases such equally yellow leaf virus disease, pragmatic use of chemicals in disease management, variable analysis of pathogens such as Smut, GSD, Mosaic, sugarcane borers, termite and white grub, Entomology and introducing parasitoids in sugarcane agro-ecosystem to combat pests.

Division of Physiology and Biochemistry [edit]

Dark-brown (top) and white sugar crystals.

The Sectionalisation of Found Physiology and Biochemistry was originally named Physiology Section started in 1958, but was later elevated to the status of a Sectionalisation with the new proper name. The Division attends to the studies on tillering, germination, moisture stress, bogus ripening of crops, seed engineering science, enhancement of sucrose content, bioethanol product and management of post harvest losses.

Sectionalization of Agricultural Engineering [edit]

The Sectionalization of Agricultural Engineering evolved out of a small workshop, started in 1952 at the inception of the Institute, for machining and fabrication of tools and equipment and has at present grown to be a center for strategic inquiry on mechanization, water management and post harvest technology of sugarcane and carbohydrate crops.^[8] Information technology coordinates with the Country Agricultural Universities and other research Centres and provides preparation, consultancy and advisory services to farmers and other users at national and international levels.^[nine]
