Agriculture knowledge is a valuable asset for farmers and other stakeholders of any country. It plays a vital role in making them more progressive and helps in transforming society. This paper discusses the agriculture knowledge management initiatives developed by ICAR. The main objective is to raise farmers' understanding of using information and best practices to improve the production system and produce more food. Using these initiatives, farmers can uncover optimum farm practices in tasks that guide them chronologically through the growing season. These abilities can be used in various ways, including conversing with farmhands, tending crops, and fixing machinery. The ICAR has played a significant role in promoting higher education in agriculture excellence. It is engaged in cutting-edge science and technology development and its scientists are internationally acknowledged in their fields.
