About IVRI Regional Station, Palampur

The Regional Station of the IVRI had its inception thon 26 January, 1959 with the objective of investigating the

animal feeding problems in the North West Himalayan

Region (NWHR) spread over H.P., J & K and the hilly areas

of Uttarakhand. In the late seventies the research mandate

was expanded to carry out detailed disease investigation and

diagnosis work as well. The approach to all research

problems continues to be interdisciplinary covering all

aspects in a very comprehensive manner from fundamental to

eld applications in complete continuity. The regional station

has a regular program of eld interactions with the farmers

for transfer of knowhow and feed back for reappraisal of the

research programs to make them up to date and need based.

The regional station has linkages and liaison with State

Agricultural University and Institute of Himalayan
