ASSAM UNIVERSITY SILCHAR , THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY

Because agriculture is an undying sector and Indian goverment is incresing the spendings each year this course is getting more demandedby public as well as private sector , that infuenced me to pursue this cousre and because i come from a village where framing s the main source of income it made me more intrested in this course. the curriculam is inclusive for all subjects including farm machinery , dairy food technolgy ,watershed technology , farm power and many more relevant subject which is prepared in the manner so it its relevant for higher studies . pratical classes lackes the equipments and is really needs more lab classes and more time spend on the field . exam are timed in each 4 months with gaps in between the exam are moderaly easy and the exam questions are only asked from the provied study material
