It is an autonomous institute under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare of the Government of India.[1]

History

ICAR-CPRI was established in August 1949 at Patna, Bihar on the recommendation of the then-Agricultural Advisor to the Government of India, Sir Herbert Steward with the objective of developing varieties of potato, expansion of potato cultivation and the cultivation techniques suitable as per local conditions. In 1956, the institute was shifted to Shimla, Himachal Pradesh in order to facilitate hybridization work in potato breeding and maintain seed potato health.[1][3]

It was transferred to the ICAR in April 1966.[1]
