Foundation: 1974
Mission: The main mission of ISRA is fundamental and applied research with the objective of: the development and progress of scientific and/or technological research; participation in its areas of competence in the development of national development policy; the promotion of research results, both at the level of the scientific community and at the level of all sectors of economic and social life; the transfer of scientific and technological knowledge; training in research and through research.
Vision: Our vision is to make ISRA an Institute of Excellence in research (quality) with a refocusing of themes to better respond to research and development issues, which integrate the visions and concerns of public agricultural policies (broad sense), and contribute significantly to achieving food security and reducing poverty. It is essentially a question of better positioning ISRA in the creation of knowledge, technologies and innovations in phase with the development policies of the State to be put at the service of the rural and urban population, to arrive at a integrated and sustainable development model, in line with the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).

Subordinate organizations:
The following data gives a quick reading on the scientific performance in the last years. The research ranking refers to the volume, impact and quality of the institution's research output. The innovation ranking is calculated on the number of patent applications of the institution and the citations that its research output receives from patents. Finally, the societal ranking is based on the number of pages of the institution's website and the number of backlinks and mentions from social networks.
The result of the evaluation of the institution can be compared to obtain a view of the country, the region to which it belongs and the institutions of the world, placing it in their respective positions.
We have divided the scientific output of the institution into 19 large areas of knowledge and the following table shows only the ranks in different territorial domains achieved by the institution in each of the areas. For an institution to have a presence in an area, it is necessary that it exceed in the last year a minimum output threshold equivalent to twice the percentage that this area represents in the world. If you need scientific indicators on these areas visit Scopus and/or SciVal.
| Area | World | Africa | Senegal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agricultural and Biological Sciences + | 3557th | 118th | 2nd |
| Environmental Science | 3678th | 115th | 1st |
| Social Sciences + |
These are the journals used by the institution's researchers to publish their work in the last year. The size of each circle represents the value of the SJR of the publication, and its spatial position represents its subject matter.
This visualizatión allows you to identify the knowledge areas where the institution has published, recognize the prestige of the scientific journals in which the institution knowledge has been published, and identify predominant scientific communities.
