Irrespective of nations, nearly all of our present foods are processed foods in some way Food industry development, therefore, literally means development of food processing industry Minimally processed dietary at Kitchen Highly processed dietary at Industry Consumption of industrially processed food at meal is seldom in Bangladesh but getting popular among young urbanites The Industrial Policy of Bangladesh 1999: Classification of Enterprises Enterprises No of employees

There is no direct agricultural target. Example: study on the genetics of plant and animal, physiology, biochemistry, and ecology.
Strategic Research is mission-oriented with sharp focus on tangible outputs that could be achieved in short to medium time-span. Example: incorporation of salt resistant genes into rice plants or the exploration of effects of nutritional factors on reproduction of animal.
Applied Research Example: propagation of new animal and plant varieties
Adaptive Research is the replication of applied research under varied conditions for evaluation of its applicability at on-farm level.Example: evaluation of a new variety of salt-tolerant rice in the saline coastal region It is difcult to uphold sector and discipline-wise food research activities in this context. Key research dimensions of public and privet research institutions are: Few recent advancement of agro-food research BARI developed protocols for seeding production relating to tissue culture of different crops
BRRI developed Worlds rst Zinc-enriched rice variety BRRI-62
DBMB, DU developed salt tolerant transgenic rice with Helicase gene
BRRI completed DNA ngerprinting of 50 BRRI released varieties to protect biopiracy
BRRI completed the molecular characterisation of 127 local Aus germplasms
BRRI developed vitamin A-enriched Golden Rice by introgressing the provitamin A genes from a selected GM rice line onto its leading variety BR29, in collaboration with the IRRI.
BARI developed and released for cultivation of a fruit and shoot borer resistant Bt brinjal using the Bangladeshi varieties in collaboration with Mahyco.
