A need for carrying out systematic research on lesser known crops of future promise was felt in the late 70’s when the symptoms of their erosion started appearing following adoption of large scale monocultures of green revolution crops in the advanced agricultural belts of the country. This resulted in the initiation of the All India Coordinated Research Project on Underutilized and Under Exploited Plants (AICRP on UU & UEP) in 1982, during the VI Five Year Plan under the ICAR umbrella. Based on the recommendations of II QRT, the project was rechristened as All India Coordinated Research Project on Underutilized Crops (AICRP on UC). The project was converted into network mode during X Five Year Plan and was functioning as All India Coordinated Research Network on Underutilized Crops. At present, the network is called as All India Coordinated Research Network on Potential Crops (AICRN on PC) since 2013 (XII five year plan)

Mandate

The network envisages mainstreaming selected potential crops of economic value by evaluating germplasm for traits discovery, developing new varieties by applying conventional and molecular breeding tools, standardizing agro-techniques for cultivation in different agro-ecologies and value addition for devolving value chain for improved climate resilience, food and nutrition security.

Major Objectives

  • To find out new plant resources for food, fodder and industrial use
  • To build up germplasm through collection
  • To identify/develop high yielding varieties for different farming conditions
  • To evolve appropriate package of agronomic practices for their economics
  • To disseminate knowledge about potential species
  • To develop value added products of potential crops and its utilization

(iii) Breeding programme: Significant efforts have been made in breeding grain amaranth at Ranichauri, Bengaluru, Bhubaneswar and S.K. Nagar, and in rice bean at Ludhiana, Ranichauri and Bengaluru. Hisar centre provided lead in faba bean breeding. Kankoda in Rahuri and Tumba in Mandor are the mandated crops for taking up breeding work. Forty six inter-species crosses involving tumba, water melon, matira, and kalingada have been attempted.
(iv) Standardization of Cultivation Packages: Agronomic trials on major Underutilized crops viz. grain amaranths and rice bean have resulted in accumulation of substantial data resulting in recommendations on dates of sowing, spacing, fertilizer applications including organic manures and weed control, water management, intercropping etc. Agronomical aspects have also been worked out in vegetable crop Kankoda, industrial plant Jatropha and tree species Simarouba.
(v) Plant Protection: Experiments on plant protection aspects of potential crops were initiated during 2014 to screen germplasm and varietal evaluation trials entries for resistance/tolerance to different diseases, insect-pests and integrated management practices for control of major pests and diseases of faba bean, grain amaranth and buckwheat.
(vi) Basic studies: Studies related to floral biology, pollination behaviour, micro-propagation of male and female trees and sex-specificity using molecular markers in paradise tree was conducted at Mettupalayam. Among the two explants tried for shoot induction, shoot tip derived from mature trees showed the maximum morphogenic response of 28.36 per cent. A technique of cleft grafting from tender coppice shoots of male and female trees on epicotyl portion of the 15 days old seedlings has recorded 83 % success in production of male and female plants. There was no report of self-incompatibility in bisexual flowers on andromonoecious plants.
(vii) Quality analysis: Chemical analysis for quality traits and some anti-nutritional factors, was carried out for the germplasm and genotypes entered in coordinated trials of different crops. The genotypes superior in different quality components were identified for their further use in breeding programme. Some of the genotypes possessing superior quality have been released as varieties.
(viii) Germplasm Registered: Two accessions from NBPGR Regional station, Shimla; one in buckwheat (IC 258233) for easy de-hulling and another in chenopodium (IC 258253) for brown seed colour, have been registered under INGR 04034 and INGR 04093, respectively.
