MISSION STATEMENT

To foster intense research aimed at improving and increasing yields of the Indian mustard crop and also to strengthen and enhance the Indian mustard Industry’s ability to profitably produce oil and other value added products that offer superior value to farmers on one side and consumers on the other side throughout the world.

…..

With the same mission M/s Puri Oil Mills Ltd in the year 2018 acquire the Mustard Research & Promotion Consortium  which was established in 1999, and was founded upon a belief that the humble mustard seed contained enormous power in terms of culinary usage, health benefits, medical treatments and industrial applications, to name just a few. The main mandate of MRPC was to unleash this power through intensive research aimed at the commercial exploitation of the entire value chain of the mustard molecule and its derivatives. These research initiatives were backed by a widespread outreach to various stakeholders through a well-planned set of promotional activities and communications.

……

Over the years, the activities of MRPC were supported by extensive participation from eminent scientists, researchers and members of the medical fraternity. Moreover, the Government of India actively supported the institution, generously funding various projects and programmes. All of this enabled MRPC to carry out breakthrough research that resulted in the creation of several innovative value­added products and the acquisition of six patents. The knowledge base and laboratory infrastructure built by MRPC across two decades has enabled the institution to move beyond its original mandate of mustard research, and to offer testing and analysis for a wide range of food products.
