The Institute has been entrusted with the responsibility of organizing both long and short duration training courses for Human Resource Development on different aspects of Plant Protection. The activities of the Institute got a fillip in 1974, when international support from United Nations under a UNDP project with a financial assistance of $1.3 million was received from the year 1974 to 1980 to develop the Institute for providing more effective training programmes.
