After adopting the improved agricultural practices demonstrated by NCRI Badeggi, many farmers in the adopted villages began recording significantly higher rice yields, translating into increased income and improved livelihoods.

The distribution of biofortified zinc-enriched rice by NCRI Badeggi to partner organisations shows their commitment not only to research but to nutritional security and community impact.

Through its outreach programmes with villages and schools, NCRI Badeggi helped ignite interest among students in agriculture, offering skills in poultry and crop farming, opening up agriculture as a viable vocation for youth.
