In spite of this potential, the utilization of these technologies in India is quite low.

This book, based on a series of workshops, seeks to inform readers about the present situation and growing opportunities for applying different forms of biotechnology in Indian agriculture. The contributors of the papers of this book are all in high positions and well experienced in agricultural Biotechnology in different spheres.
