International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA)

Established in 1977, the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) is one of the 15 centers supported by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). ICARDA’s mission is to improve the welfare of poor people through research and training in dry areas of the developing world, by increasing the production, productivity and nutritional quality of food, while preserving and enhancing the natural resource base. ICARDA serves the entire developing world for the improvement of lentil, barley and faba bean; all dry area developing countries for the improvement of on-farm water-use efficiency, rangeland and small ruminant production; and the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region for the improvement of bread and durum wheat, chickpea, pasture and forage legumes, and farming systems. ICARDA’s research provides global benefits of poverty alleviation through productivity improvements integrated with sustainable natural resource management practices. ICARDA meets this challenge through research, training and dissemination of information, in partnership with the national, regional and international agricultural research and development systems.
