ICAR-Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) Imphal West was established on August 3, 1979, as a pioneering agricultural extension centre under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). Located in the heart of Manipur, this KVK serves as a vital link between agricultural research and the farming community, focusing on the transfer of modern agricultural technologies to enhance productivity and sustainability in the region. KVK Imphal West plays a crucial role in promoting innovative farming practices, providing hands-on training, and conducting on-farm testing to validate and refine new technologies suited to local conditions. It also offers critical advisory services, addressing the specific needs of farmers in Imphal and its surrounding areas. The centre’s activities encompass a wide range of agricultural sectors, including crop production, horticulture, livestock management, fisheries, and agro-forestry. Through its multidisciplinary approach, KVK Imphal West has significantly contributed to improving the livelihoods of farmers by introducing high-yielding crop varieties, sustainable farming techniques, and integrated pest management practices. Over the decades, KVK Imphal West has evolved into a hub of knowledge and innovation, fostering community development and agricultural resilience in the region. Its establishment marked a significant step forward in the agricultural advancement of Manipur, aligning with the broader goals of ICAR to uplift rural communities through scientific interventions.

The ICAR Agriculture Technology Application Research Institute (ATARI-Zone VII) is a key institute under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, focusing on the effective dissemination of agricultural technologies across the northeastern states of India. Based in Umiam, Meghalaya, ATARI-Zone VII coordinates and monitors the activities of Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) in the region, ensuring that innovative and sustainable farming practices reach farmers, thereby enhancing agricultural productivity and rural development.


Vision: To empower rural communities by transforming Indian agriculture through the application of scientific knowledge and modern technologies. KVKs aim to enhance agricultural productivity, sustainability, and farmers' incomes by serving as dynamic hubs of innovation, training, and extension services. By bridging the gap between research and practice, KVKs strive to create resilient farming systems, promote environmental stewardship, and ensure food security for all.
Mission: To accelerate agricultural development by facilitating the transfer of innovative technologies to the farming community. KVKs are committed to enhancing the knowledge and skills of farmers through hands-on training, demonstrations, and on-farm testing. They aim to promote sustainable agricultural practices, improve rural livelihoods, and contribute to the overall socio-economic upliftment of the rural population by fostering a productive and resilient agricultural sector.
Mandate: The mandate of Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) encompasses several key objectives:
  • Technology Assessment and Refinement: KVKs assess the location-specific applicability of agricultural technologies and refine them to suit local conditions through on-farm trials.
  • Technology Demonstration: KVKs demonstrate the application of proven agricultural technologies on farmers' fields to showcase their effectiveness in real-world conditions.
  • Capacity Building: KVKs provide hands-on training and capacity-building programs for farmers, rural youth, and extension workers, focusing on skill development and knowledge enhancement in various aspects of agriculture.
  • Advisory Services: KVKs offer need-based advisory services and guidance to farmers on crop production, pest management, soil health, and other related areas.
  • Extension Activities: KVKs engage in a wide range of extension activities, including field days, seminars, workshops, and exhibitions, to disseminate agricultural knowledge and innovations to a broader audience.
  • Promotion of Sustainable Practices: KVKs emphasize the adoption of sustainable farming practices, including integrated pest management, organic farming, and conservation agriculture, to ensure long-term agricultural productivity and environmental health.
