An outlet for the sale of bio inputs of all ICAR institutes named ‘Kisan Seva Kendra’ has been launched at ICAR-IISR, Kozhikode, Kerala. The facility is the first of its kind among ICAR institutes and intends to support small and marginal farmers across the country by facilitating easy access to ICAR technology-based farm bio inputs at one place. All products are also available online through https://spiisry.in
Our vision for ushering in smart spice farming systems in the country is consistent with our research efforts in delivering smart solutions for the constraints faced by the spice farming community. The unique microbial delivery system involving microbial encapsulation technology and several other path breaking strides including designer micronutrients for spices, mapping of climate analogues for spice farming, input optimization for targeted yield and fertigation scheduling have become the state of the art in modern spice farming systems.

The Indian Institute of Spices Research (IISR), Kozhikode (Calicut) a constituent body of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is a major Institute devoted to research on spices. In 1976, it started as a Regional Station of the Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (CPCRI), Kasaragod engaged in research on spices.
A National Research Centre for Spices was established in 1986 with its headquarters at Kozhikode, Kerala by merging the erstwhile Regional Station of CPCRI at Kozhikode and Cardamom Research Centre at Appangala, Karnataka. Realising the importance of Spices Research in India this Research Centre was upgraded to Indian Institute of Spices Research on 1st July, 1995. The laboratories and administrative offices of the institute are located at Chelavoor (50m above MSL), 11 km from Kozhikode, Kozhikode District, Kerala on the Kozhikode-Wyanad road (NH 766) in an area of 14.3 ha.
