Agronomy is a very broad subject consisting of several sub-topics i.e., Introduction, crops, agro meteorology, soil, tillage, dryland agriculture, water management, weed management, farming and cropping systems, etc. So, it is very difficult to prepare lectures for all these topics simultaneously. So, gradually according to the need of the students, we will upload some conceptual lectures from each topic. With time, we will upload more and more quizzes for your self-assessment as well.
This course will cover basic concepts of Agronomy (Introductory agronomy, agrometeorology, crop growth, weather, and crop growth, soil and tillage, soil fertility and nutrient management, dryland agriculture, soil and water conservation in agriculture, irrigation and water management, watershed management, weed management, cropping, and farming system, post-harvest processing, sustainable agriculture, precision agriculture, etc.), Soil science (Soil formation, soil physics, soil microbiology, soil chemistry, soil biology, soil fertility, etc.), plant physiology and agricultural statistics.
Students from India will get help in their ICAR entrance exams, ASRB NET/STO/SMS/ARS exams, SAU entrance exams, and written exams in jobs i.e., AAO, AHO, ASCO, ADA, RAEO, RHEO, SADO, IBPS AFO, NABARD, etc. as Agronomy contributes major part of any agri-competitive examination.
