History
It was established by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) in 1976, to address issues related to agricultural research, training and development and education management, in India. In the initial years, the academy primarily imparted foundation training to the new entrants of the Agricultural Research Service[2] of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research.[3]
Subsequently, its role expanded to include research, capacity building of senior professionals of national and international NARS (National Agricultural Research Station) in agricultural research and education management, and policy and consultancy support to NARS.[2][4] The academy also renders services for building intellectual property (IP) portfolios like patents and geographical indications to various stakeholders including farmers and scientists.[5]
