The National Agricultural Research Center (NARC) aims at using the results of agricultural research derived locally or quoted from other sources for the purposes of increasing agricultural production, including plant and animal production, raising its efficiency and improving it, preserving and optimizing agricultural natural resources, serving the purposes of agricultural development and maintaining environmental balance.
The National Center consists of the main center. It is located in Al-Baqaa area within Al-Balqa Governorate, 15 kilometers north of Amman, in addition to eight research centers covering all regions of the Kingdom based on the climate distribution. Furthermore, the Center supervises 15 research station distributed over the various regions of the Kingdom. The center staff consists of: (55) researchers holding a Ph.D degree in agricultural sciences and agricultural engineering. (112) Researchers holding a master’s degree in agricultural sciences and agricultural engineering. (162) Researchers holding a bachelor’s degree in agricultural sciences and agricultural engineering. (32) Researchers holding a higher diploma in agricultural sciences and agricultural engineering. (332) support and administrative staff to support research work, their qualifications include bachelor’s degree, intermediate diploma and below.
The National Center is the only government agricultural research institution at the national level. It forms the national umbrella for applied scientific research and agricultural consultancy. it is the scientific arm of the Ministry of Agriculture. It is responsible for conducting applied agricultural research and providing an agricultural consultancy service. It is followed by 7 specialized laboratories; namely: soil analysis laboratories, water analysis laboratories, plant analysis laboratories and plant protection laboratories, which are located in the main center, sub-centers, the fertilizer analysis laboratory, the microbiology laboratory and the feed laboratory, which are located in the main center.
For decades, NARC has been carrying out applied scientific research in many fields, most notably plant production, plant protection, animal production, veterinary medicine, climate change, the use of unconventional water for irrigation, including gray water and other treated wastewater, water harvesting and genetic engineering, biotechnology, biological diversity, selection of species and breeds, and diagnosis of plant and animal pests and diseases.
The services of the National Agricultural Research Centre are received by farmers (farmers of plant and animal production), agricultural companies, agricultural and development associations, exporters, olive presses, graduate students, and specialists in the agricultural field.
