| Brief Profile | |
| The CIMAP Research Center at Bangalore (then CIMPO, South Zonal Centre) was established in the year 1959. Since its inception, the center has been working as a CIMAP Field Station on diverse aspects of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (MAPs), from agronomy to breeding to phytochemistry, with the sole focus on farmers and the MAPs user industries in the states of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. The CIMAP Research Center, Bangalore (CRCB) has been working with the same vision and mission as that of its Headquarters at Lucknow. The center has been instrumental in carrying out several field trials for the research that is being carried out at CIMAP Headquarters and its other centers, due to its favourable location in an important agro-climatic zone. Of late, CRCB has added a newer dimension and is working as a full-fledged research center of CIMAP with strong R&D programs on biotechnology, biochemistry, lipid sciences, microbiology, plant breeding and agronomy in addition to the extension related work. |
