Research perspectives of the CMFRI

Abstract

In July 1994 the Indian Council of Agricultural Research has reconstituted the Staff Research Council (SRC) and created a new body called the Research Advisory Committee (RAC) for each ICAR Research Institute by incorporating Rule 71 (A) to (M) under Chapter XIII of the Rules of the ICAR Society. The RAC and the SRC have been so constituted that the external experts in these two bodies will have a key role in advising the Institutes on the thrust areas for R&D. Besides, they would be critically reviewing and assessing the research activities and achievements. This exercise is expected to help the Institutes take appropriate strategies and tactical steps to minimise the impediments stalling progress and to maximise R & D outputs.
