1. Domain-Specific Focus

• Deals with different types of data, specially crop yields, soil properties, weather, livestock performance, pest incidence, and socio-economic survey.
• Specialized in Statistical inference, risk assessment, reliability management, experimental design, field trials in agriculture which often requires advanced design to control variability in soil and weather

2. Multidisciplinary Research

• Works together with Agronomy, Horticulture, Plant breeding, Soil science, Entomology, Management, Geography, Physical education, Education, and other Social Sciences to design experiments and analyze data.
• Contributes to climate modelling, crop yield forecasting etc.

3. Focus on Field and Rural Development

• Data from on-farm trials social surveys are analyzed, which needs handling of heterogeneity in data, missing data, and non-normality.

4. Capacity Building and Training

• Train Scientists and researchers in designing suitable experiment and interpreting the result correctly.
• Organise FDP/workshop on Statistical computing and Data analysis.
