About
I am working as a Scientist (Agronomy) at the University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), Bangalore, with significant contributions to sustainable crop production and natural resource management. My research focuses on improving the productivity, profitability, and environmental sustainability of rainfed agro-ecosystems through innovative agronomic practices. I have pioneered work in castor and forage crops, developing improved production technologies that enhance energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
With over a decade of research and teaching experience, I have served as Principal Investigator and Co-Investigator in externally funded projects supported by national and international agencies. I have published numerous research articles, book chapters, and extension bulletins, contributing to both scientific knowledge and farmer outreach. My commitment to climate-resilient agriculture and resource-efficient technologies has advanced sustainable farming systems in Karnataka and beyond.
