e at Biotechnology Resource Centre have been fortunate that our pioneering work in the field of biotechnological fertilizers and bio-repellents has been appreciated by several government and non-governmental organizations. We are delighted to present here, some of the prestigious awards and laurels that have been bestowed upon us.

But our greatest awards come from the farming community which has reposed unwavering trust and faith in our products to supplement their efforts to increase the yield of their farms, orchards or gardens. We take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to them.
