Five projects newly sanctioned for 2026-27, each running three years. Project codes carry the divisional prefix, so a code is also a statement of which division owns the work. List as on 12.08.2026.
Newly sanctioned
| कोड | शीर्षक | अवधि |
|---|---|---|
| SPR 05040 SNC | Integrated Basement Research on Castor-Based Sustainable Eri Culture Development in Gujarat | Jun 2026 – May 2029 |
| MOE 05041 SIC | Classification of Muga and Eri Production Systems and Assessment of Productivity Determinants and Gender Dynamics | Jun 2026 – May 2029 |
| SRP 05042 SIC | Eco-Friendly Botanical Formulations for Sustainable Management of Muscine Disease in Muga Silkworm (Antheraea assamensis Helfer.) | Jul 2026 – Jun 2029 |
| PIB 05043 SNC | Collection, Screening and Identification of Water Logging Tolerant Castor (Ricinus communis) Genotype for Climate Resilient Eri-culture | Aug 2026 – Jul 2029 |
| MOE 05044 SIC | Popularization of Improved Technologies for Sustainable Development of Muga Sericulture in Assam, Meghalaya, and Eri Sericulture in Arunachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat | Aug 2026 – Jul 2029 |
Three of the five are climate-facing — water-logging tolerance in castor,
climate-resilient ericulture in Gujarat, and (alongside the continuing kesseru nitrogen-use
work) a visible reorientation of the programme from productivity alone towards resilience.
A fourth, MOE 05041, is the institute’s first project to treat gender dynamics as a
research variable rather than a reporting category.
