National Institute of Agricultural Marketing (NIAM), a premier agri - business school in India, is a flourishing cauldron of excellence in management education, high quality research, management development, and value added training. The Institute was set up by the Government of India on 8th August 1988 to offer specialized Training, Research and Consultancy in Agricultural Marketing in India and South East Asian countries.

Agricultural Marketing occupies an important place, particularly in the context of the new liberalization and value addition requirements of the agricultural sector. Agricultural Marketing, rather than production, is going to be the key driver of the agriculture sector today, thanks to the new market realities posed by the increasing accent on globalization, liberalization and privatization of the economy. Market-driven production is an idea whose time has come. With the gradual shifting of agricultural system from subsistence to commercial one, there is increasing focus on Agri entrepreneurship and Agri-marketing.


This summons us to revisit our traditional statistic policies and laws and bring about the requisite reforms in the sector. The main objectives of the institute are to impart training to various levels of functionaries to conduct research, to offer consultancy services and education to develop promising human resources in order to meet the new emerging challenges in the field of agricultural marketing.

NIAM emphasises, now more than ever, to showcase its uniqueness by meeting a wide variety of challenges, be it field work, number crunching, presentation skills, marketing surveys and studies, research, financial expertise etc. To this NIAM is adding more Foreign Languages, publishing crisp informative agri-business magazines catering to the needs of agro-based industry, organising big Agri-business events - Symposium, B-Quiz, Paper Presentations etc. on issues of national and international importance.

Our highly experienced faculty members have increasingly worked on global research problems as well as research oriented consulting, and have made significant contribution to know-how world-wide. Our bright young students have developed their minds and have embarked upon promising careers in the corporate world. The executives who have been trained at NIAM have developed their latent managerial and leadership capabilities, and several of them have made it to the top notch in their respective organizations.

We are committed towards creating a community which is green, sustainable and which provides a lifelong learning experience and professional development. I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to our campus, and discover for yourself what this great institution could mean to you.
