| India is predominantly an agrarian country, and the growth of agriculture is reflected in the good yields of
different crops that depend on various factors – natural and man-made. Agricultural research, the backbone
of agricultural growth in the country, demands timely dissemination of knowledge being generated and
updated across the globe from time to time. Hitherto, R and D institutions have been procuring print
versions of journals and literature in aid of science and technology. With the advent of internet facilities and
advancement of web technology, almost all reputed international journals are available on-line and can
easily be accessed by researchers over the network. Since ICAR is having network connectivity across the
institutes and state agricultural universities, select journals could be made available over the network for the
use of scientific community. Keeping this broad objective in mind, the National Agricultural Innovation
Project (NAIP) has funded for establishing the Consortium for e-Resources in Agriculture (CeRA) at the
Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI). |
