In the speech of the special guest, Pro-Vice Chancellor Professor Dr. S. M. Hemayet Jahan said, “This workshop will play an important role in enriching knowledge development and research. Through the success of the related projects, the research potential of the university will further advance.”
In the speech of the chief guestVice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Kazi Rafiqul Islam said, “Research programs should be expanded in Pabiprabi. The innovative results of this project should not be limited to the lab, but should be delivered to the farmers’ fields. If our teachers focus more on academic activities as well as research, the university will add new dimensions to national agricultural research.” He also said, “Due to phosphorus deficiency in different parts of the countryRice production is decreasing. Today’s workshop will play an important role in solving this problem through genetic and microbial innovation. Our university administration has always given priority to increasing research facilities and will continue to do so in the future.” The workshop was attended by hundreds of representatives including deans, registrars, department chairmen, teachers, officers and researchers of various faculties.
