Researchers are not only aiming to improve quantity, quality but also targeting to enrich diversity of the agri-products. The current scenario and the life style requirements of man is changing rapidly. One can't rely on the traditional crops' variety alone for a healthy life style or for day to day requirement. Contradictorily, we need to indentify the nutritional values of forgotten crops like millets, coarse cereals etc. In this direction, oat (Avena sativa) is a very good source of water soluble β-Glucan and has potential to be explored for its nutritional value. Similarly the genome of the a crop provides the tremendous opportunity of crop improvement and in the direction of desired way. Family farming system in India is very much responsible for cropping pattern and needs to be revaluated, depending upon the soil of the particular region and the climate. In the same way conventional means of pest management requires a face-lift and can be applied to combat the excessive use of hazardous pesticide, as these are affecting ecosystem including the farm animals.
