Official message from Head of Department with picture

In early sixties researchers from ARI Tarnab initiated sporadic activities in Malakand division that eventually led to the establishment an Agricultural Research Sub Station Mingora in 1976; upgraded to ARS Mingora in 1980. Owing to remarkable achievements and growing demand of the farming community it was further promoted to Agricultural Research Institute in 2007. Since the inception of agricultural research in Malakand division subsistence farming has been transformed into market oriented farming through improved varieties and production technologies
