The SKD College of Agriculture offers a comprehensive range of undergraduate, postgraduate, and diploma programs focused on agricultural sciences, equipping students with practical and theoretical knowledge to address modern farming challenges. The curriculum emphasizes sustainable agriculture, crop production, soil management, and agribusiness, preparing graduates for careers in research, extension services, and entrepreneurship.
- Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (B.Sc. Agri): This four-year program covers foundational topics such as agronomy, horticulture, plant pathology, entomology, and soil science. Students engage in hands-on training through field experiments, greenhouse cultivation, and farm management projects. The course integrates modern techniques like precision farming, genetic engineering, and climate-resilient crop varieties to foster innovation in food security.
- Master of Science in Agronomy (M.Sc. Agri): A two-year advanced study delving into crop production systems, weed management, and irrigation technologies. Research components include thesis work on sustainable practices, such as organic farming and integrated nutrient management, aimed at enhancing yield and environmental conservation.
- Master of Science in Horticulture (M.Sc. Horti): Focuses on fruit and vegetable cultivation, post-harvest technology, and landscape architecture. Practical sessions involve orchard management, floriculture, and value-added product development, promoting agribusiness opportunities in export-oriented markets.
- Diploma in Agricultural Engineering: A one-year course on farm machinery, irrigation systems, and soil conservation engineering. It includes workshops on tractor maintenance, drip irrigation design, and renewable energy applications in agriculture.
- Ph.D. in Plant Pathology: Research-oriented program exploring disease diagnostics, biological control methods, and epidemiology. Candidates conduct fieldwork on fungal, bacterial, and viral pathogens affecting major crops like rice, wheat, and vegetables.
- Certificate in Organic Farming: Short-term program teaching composting, bio-fertilizers, and certification processes for organic produce, ideal for smallholder farmers transitioning to eco-friendly methods.
Additionally, the college offers extension programs and workshops on animal husbandry, aquaculture, and agroforestry, collaborating with local communities to promote rural development. Emphasis is placed on gender-inclusive education and skill-building for employability in government sectors, NGOs, and private agrotech firms. The holistic approach ensures graduates contribute to India's agricultural self-sufficiency goals, tackling issues like soil degradation, water scarcity, and biodiversity loss through interdisciplinary learning and innovation.
Interdisciplinary electives include agricultural economics, biotechnology, and environmental science, allowing customization based on career aspirations. Field visits to progressive farms, internships with ICAR institutes, and participation in national conferences enrich the learning experience. With state-of-the-art labs and demonstration farms, the campus fosters a research-driven environment, producing alumni who lead in policy-making and sustainable development initiatives across the agrarian landscape.
