During our preparation, we found that AGRICULTURE created enormous job opportunities in teaching, research, extension, industries and financial institutions, which are based on all those examinations conducted by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), New Delhi, various State Agricultural Universities, State Boards and banking institutions. All these examinations are mostly objective based and students always look for study materials that are ready to use and easy to grasp, but there is no one competitive book that deals with Agriculture in its entirety for any competitive examination.
The present book “Guide for Agricultural Competitive Examinations” has been prepared in simple, clear and in appropriate manner so that easy to grasp and remember, based on syllabus of competitive examinations, 100% examination oriented, covers agriculture comprehensively with basic and innovative knowledge of various fields of agriculture.
