The Biotechnology Application
Centre have been striving continuously to bring the best results to
the state and its people, to preserve biological diversity, improve
local skills and to improve and standardize the quality of locally
produced products. This will facilitate to make quality assured and
value added products. Keeping in view the broad objectives laid down
by the Govt. of Madhya Pradesh to achieve its main aims that is
improvement in the quality of life of people, increased production
and employment besides encouraging possibilities of self employment
through institutional finance. The Biotechnology Application Centre
has put in much efforts and is still craving hard to further enhance
its activities in the days to come.
Being a very rich territory in terms of forest and minerals, the
state of Madhya Pradesh is essentially an agricultural state with
abundance of bio-diversity and availability of water area. Which is
available for fisheries development. Madhya Pradesh ranks third in
terms of water area available in various states. In terms of inland
fish production its position is tenth. Bio-tech based sectors offer
extensive scope in the light of abundance of rich natural resource
in Madhya Pradesh.
Scientific knowledge of the living world has grown tremendously
particularly in the past fifty years or so. A great deal is revealed
about the structure and function of the living cells, how they
retain and transmit genetic information and how they respond to
chemical and physical changes. Globally Biotechnology is playing a
significant role in using natural products sextalk . book rock of ages show . where to buy testosterone trust . site english milfs in leggings just try for developing new
marketable processes and products which can increase production and
support sustainable and eco friendly technologies. As we understand
genetically engineered plants can help in increasing yields and
provide disease resistant crops.
Tissue Culture helps in producing large number of plants of desired
uniform quality. Tissue culture of teak for example is of great
relevance for this state. By this Bio-technique large number of
quality assured plant lets can be made available for afforestation
of degraded wastelands. Bio-fertilizers and biopesticides not only
help in increasing agricultural production but also help in reducing
pollution.
Bio- technology Application Centre has been formulating and
implementing application oriented research and development programme
of the commercially viable potential technologies. The centre is in
the process of co-ordinating and promoting technology development at
different levels. Some of the simple technologies are being applied
for tribal and rural areas besides advanced technologies with
support of financial institutions are being taken up by unemployed
educated youth.
At the same time export oriented hi-tech systems and technologies
are being taken up by industries. Concrete efforts are being made to
formulate plans through which biotech products and process move from
research laboratory to the concerned people, farmers, entrepreneurs
and industry.
Biotechnology Application Centre under Madhya Pradesh Council of
Science & Technology is also conducting development programmes in
the fields of medicinal and aromatic plants, forest biomass,
pisciculture (including fresh water prawn culture), agriculture,
horticulture (including floriculture and mushroom cultivation), post
harvest technology, medical biotechnology and environmental
biotechnology.
