Dear Friends and well wishers,

NIMBKAR AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE

Sustainable rural development through the application of science and technology
We are one of the very few science and technology NGO's in India which are more than 50 years old and our longevity itself demonstrates our work and contribution. A souvenir briefing the key milestones in our 50 year long journey can be found here.
One of our achievements is to do high quality research and development on a shoestring budget. For instance, we have found that every rupee of funds spent on our projects generated revenue of roughly 150 rupees in rural areas! We call this the romance of innovation.
A summary of our work's impact can be found here. A few instances of it are as follows
