Two state-of-the-art laboratoriesβJackfruit Processing Laboratory and Honey Testing Laboratoryβwere inaugurated at the ICAR Palandu Research Center.

As part of a larger agenda focused on sustainable agriculture and nutrition security, the Jharkhand government has unveiled a comprehensive initiative to promote millet cultivation and value addition. A unique aspect of the initiative is the establishment of Millet Cafeterias in Jharkhand, which is aimed at driving both nutritional awareness and market demand. This scheme also aims to empower women’s self-help groups (SHGs) and bolster the rural economy through minor millet commercialisation.
