It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. After the formation of Haryana in 1966, it became an autonomous institution on February 2, 1970 through a Presidential Ordinance, later ratified as Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970, passed by the Lok Sabha on March 29, 1970.

    Response of time of planting on growth, flowering, spike yield and essential oils in tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) genotypes
    (CCSHAU, Hisar, 2023-03) Manpreet Kaur; Beniwal, B.S.
    The present experiment “Response of time of planting on growth, flowering, spike yield and essential oils of tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) genotypes” was conducted at Experimental farm of Department of Horticulture and Centre for Bio-Nanotechnology, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during 2019-20 and 2020-21. During the year 2019-20 crop was taken as fresh, while during 2020-21 all the observations were recorded on ratoon crop. Two individual experiments were laid out. In first experiment three time of planting (March, April & May) and six genotypes (Pearl Double, Hyderabad Double, Mexican Single, Prajwal, Suvasini & Vaibhav) were taken, while in second experiment two harvesting stage of florets (Bud burst stage & Fullbloom stage), three planting time and six genotypes were selected. Both the experiments were laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The observations were recorded on various growth, flowerings and bulb yield parameters. The Statistical analysis of data of first experiment revealed that better results in terms of growth, flowering, spike yield and bulb yield of tuberose were found in Mexican Single followed by Prajwal when planted in March, while in second experiment highest absolute was recovered from May planted Prajwal genotype when harvested at bud-burst stage during both the years.
