Major thrust at the centre• Development of dual purpose HYV/H with good grain and

fodder yield• Development of New MS and Restorers• Evaluation of germplasm for different desirable traits• Formulation of improved production technology for new dual

purpose sorghum varieties and hybrids• To develop sustainable and benefit cost effective production

technology i.e. increase the yields and returns under NM and INMfor unfavorable abiotic conditions in changing climatic scenario.

• Dissemination of the improved production technology of sorghumamong the farmers for higher productivity through conduction ofFLDs/TSP

• Identification of the landraces and elite genotypes for theresistance/ tolerance to shoot fly and stem borer

• Development of integrated plant protection measures for sorghumin changing climate
