Background

The Agricultural Machinery and Postharvest Technology Research Center was established in 2002 for such purposes. It has become one of the dedicated research centers that aim to conduct research to create new knowledge and technologies that can be applied for the economic and social developments of the country. The center has a vision to be one of the highest quality research centers among the ASEAN countries. The center has 3 missions: to conduct research in the field of agricultural machinery and postharvest technology that is highly required by the community; to develop research at the graduate level in the fields of agricultural machinery and postharvest technology; and to provide academic services for users. Our Focus is on research to develop and / or improve post-harvest machinery Including postharvest technology that is important to the country By focusing on the main plants for research are rice, cassava, sugarcane and rubber, as well as fruit trees that are economically important The research results can be put into practice and suitable for practice.
