SIART Research
Sansar Institute of Agricultural Research & Training
From Laboratory to Field. From Knowledge to Prosperity.
The Sansar Institute of Agricultural Research & Training (SIART) is Rajeev Singh’s platform for agricultural research, innovation, training and technology transfer.
SIART brings together farmers, researchers, students, agricultural scientists, entrepreneurs, universities and institutions to develop practical solutions for the challenges facing Indian agriculture.
Its purpose is clear: turn research into field-ready knowledge that improves soil health, crop productivity, resource efficiency, farmer capability and rural prosperity.

Our Vision
To become a leading centre for agricultural research, innovation and learning that supports farmers and contributes to a sustainable, climate-resilient and prosperous India.
Our Mission
SIART works to:
- Advance practical agricultural research and innovation
- Develop soil-specific and crop-relevant biological solutions
- Promote microbial farming and healthy-soil systems
- Train farmers, youth and agripreneurs
- Strengthen collaboration among research institutions and communities
- Support technology transfer and rural entrepreneurship
- Promote responsible, environmentally sustainable agriculture
Core Research Areas
Microbial Strain Banks
SIART is developing a research approach around region-specific microbial strain banks.
Soils differ in their biological activity, climate, organic matter, pH, moisture and cropping conditions. By studying beneficial microorganisms suited to local conditions, SIART aims to support the development of better soil-health and crop-support solutions.

Biofertiliser and Bio-Input Innovation
SIART works on biological agricultural inputs designed to support soil fertility, nutrient availability, root-zone health and sustainable crop production.
Focus areas include microbial biofertilisers, biostimulants, organic growth inputs, beneficial microbial consortia and eco-friendly crop-support solutions.

Soil Health and Crop Nutrition
Healthy soil is the base of productive agriculture.
SIART promotes scientific soil assessment, organic-matter management, balanced nutrition, microbial activity and crop-specific recommendations to help farmers make better decisions for long-term land productivity.

Tissue Culture and Quality Planting Material
Quality planting material is essential for productive and resilient farming.
SIART supports research, awareness and development related to tissue culture, disease-free plants and improved planting material for high-value crops.
Soilless and Modern Farming Systems
SIART explores hydroponic, aeroponic and other efficient cultivation systems that can support urban agriculture, resource-efficient farming and high-value crop production.
Research to Field: Our Working Model
SIART follows a practical pathway:
- Identify a farmer or environmental challenge
- Study soil, crop, climate and local conditions
- Develop or evaluate suitable solutions
- Conduct field trials and demonstrations
- Gather farmer feedback and research observations
- Improve recommendations and technology
- Train farmers, youth and institutions for wider adoption
This approach ensures that innovation remains connected with real field conditions and farmer needs.
Training and Capacity Building
Research becomes meaningful when people can use it.
SIART offers and supports programmes for farmers, students, women’s groups, youth, FPOs, entrepreneurs and institutions.
