Hyderabad, Sept. 13 The Manila-based International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) will sign a memorandum of understanding with Acharya N G Ranga Agricultural University (ANGRAU) to work on issues of common interest.

The MoU would facilitate exchange of research students and faculty and take up joint research projects.

The decision was taken following a visit of Dr S Raghuvardhan Reddy, Vice-Chancellor of ANGRAU, to Manila recently.

According to a university press release, the two institutes would exchange information and research findings that would improve quality of agriculture education and research in critical issues that dogged both India and the Philippines in the area of rice.

The agenda for discussions between the Vice-Chancellor and IRRI officials included material support to the Indian university through germ-plasm exchange and managing of rice crop response to climate change.
