Bio Sketch
Major specialization is Agronomy (Crop Production and Crop Ecology). I have >9 years experience in the field of research and development and expertise in the field of high value Medicinal and Aromatic plants, Biotic and abiotic stress signals on secondary metabolites in medicinal and aromatic plants., Weed management, Integrated Nutrient Management, Organic Farming, Conservation Agriculture for sustaining crop productivity and soil health, Farm Planning and management, Agro-technology development on high value Medicinal and Aromatic plants (MAPs) and other industrially important economic plants. The agro-technology developed at laboratory scale is completely transferring to farmer’s field in societal development programme. I am handling projects as Principle Investigator/Co-PI on Medicinal and Aromatic plants funded by DBT, DST Govt. of India and CSIR. Presently, working as Scientist C and having additional responsibility as Scientist-In-charge, Field Station, Chatha, Jammu. I have more than 30 research paper in reputed National and International Journal.
