The University of Dhaka provides local farmers and food producers with access to its facilities, technologies, and research resources to support sustainable farming practices and strengthen food security. This access is facilitated through multiple academic units, including the Institute of Nutrition and Food Science, Institute of Health Economics, Departments of Oceanography, Soil, Water and Environment, Fisheries, Botany, Zoology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and Microbiology.

These departments and institutes allow farmers and producers to utilise university laboratories, experimental plots, demonstration farms, plant and aquaculture stocks, and relevant technologies under guided supervision. Such access enables practical application of scientific knowledge and supports the adoption of improved cultivation, aquaculture, and soil and water management techniques.

In addition to facility access, faculty members provide hands-on training and technical advice, ensuring that local producers can implement sustainable and efficient practices. Farmers and food producers are often engaged in research projects, field trials, and technology demonstrations, allowing direct knowledge transfer and fostering long-term collaboration.

Through these initiatives, the University of Dhaka ensures that local agricultural and aquaculture communities can leverage university resources to improve productivity, sustainability, and resilience. This programmatic engagement enhancing the practical capabilities of local farmers and food producers and promoting sustainable food systems at the national level.
