IISR Wins Best Technology Award:
The Indian Institute of Spices Research (IISR) won the best technology award at the 96th Foundation Day of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) for its cutting-edge work in horticultural studies.
- Union Minister for Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Shivraj Singh Chouhan gave this award to him in New Delhi.
- The interesting technology, called “Process for instant soluble turmeric enriched spice-flavored milk powder,” is one of the five best new ideas from the Horticulture Sciences Division of ICAR. This new development shows a big step forward in how food is processed.
- Together with the Malabar Regional Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union Limited, the technology went on sale in 2020.
- Two successful products, Golden Milk and Golden Milk Mix, were made and sold thanks to this relationship.
- The technology that was given out was made by K. Anees, Rajeev P., E. Radha, and C. K. Thankamani, who are all IISR experts.
- Their study was mostly about finding ways to get around the big problem that turmeric doesn’t dissolve in water.
