Explanation:

In 1955, the Station was transferred to the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi with a view to intensifying the improvement work and seed production on temperate vegetables and was renamed as IARI Vegetable Research Station and finally as IARI Regional Station. The credit for the country's achieving self sufficiency in the production of seeds of temperate vegetables goes largely to the IARI Regional Station at Katrain. The success achieved by the station in the development of a whole package of technology for vegetables and seed production is well known. A classic example is the successful seed production of late cauliflower (Snowball) for the first time in the country. At present, the seeds of 60 varieties in 26 vegetables are being produced at the station.
