International Conference on New Age Technologies for Nutritious, Sustainable and Resilient Global Rice Systems

23-25 January, 2026

About SARR

The Society for Advancement of Rice Research (http://sarr.co.in/) is a registered society ( 2004) for researchers, research manager's, extension personnel, institutions, development agencies, trade and industry who practice and promote activities for the advancement of rice science and development. The society has been started with overall objectives of providing a platform for exchange of information and knowledge and disseminate the latest developments in rice research and to bring together all persons / institutions working for the cause of rice and rice based cropping systems. Laureates of rice science shared their views in different activities of the society in the conference, brainstorming sessions, Annual Rice Group meetings organized by SARR.

About Conference

New age technologies like Genomics, Genome Editing, Functional genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, Climate Smart Agriculture, Mechanization, Direct Seeded Rice (DSR), Digital Agriculture Platforms, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), GIS, IOTs, Digital Extension and Market Intelligence are indispensable for making rice cultivation more productive, climate-resilient, resource efficient and profitable. Thus supporting sustainable intensification, crucial to ensuring food and nutritional security for a growing global population.

The Conference provides a global platform of Rice Scientists, Researchers, Policy makers, Seed Industry, Extension workers, Students, Farmers and other stake holders to discuss and collaborate on existing and emrging New Age Technologies and other Ntional and international developments in rice systems.

About IIRR

The ICAR-Indian Institute of Rice Research (ICAR-IIRR) was established as the All India Coordinated Rice Improvement Project (AICRIP) by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) in 1965 at Hyderabad. AICRIP was elevated to Directorate of Rice Research (DRR) in 1983 and ICAR-Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR) in 2014. IIRR (https://www.icar-iirr.org/) is involved in basic and strategic research for enhancing rice productivity under irrigated ecosystem; coordination of multi-location testing to develop location specic varieties and technologies for various ecosystems; and dissemination of technologies, capacity building and establishing linkages.
