A Centre of Excellence Driving Sustainable Agricultural Transformation

The Centre for Agricultural Research and Innovation (CARI) at Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar, is a pioneering academic and research centre dedicated to strengthening agriculture through integrated education, advanced research, technological innovation, and societal outreach.
