English abstract

Dr A M Michael (1930-2021) was a distinguished agricultural scientist, an institution builder of renown and a reputed public servant. Few individuals in this century can claim to have had a greater impact on Indian agricultural research and development, irrigation engineering and Informatics than Dr Michael. It was Dr Michael who pioneered the digitization of PhD dissertations bringing them into Open Access for wider visibility, application and prevention of research duplication. It greatly influenced the establishment of innovative knowledge management systems like KrishiPrabha, mguthese.org and Shodhganga. Vision, intellect and passion; will power and quest for excellence, infallible power of judgment and diligence against all odds; rarely do we get to see these qualities together in a single individual.
