It was established in then College of Agriculture and mechanical arts in 1959. In the wake of its establishment, it began training for BSc degrees. Currently the school comprises four programs, namely Agronomy & Crop Ecology, Crop protection, Horticulture and Genetics & Plant Breeding.\u00a0 The School launched the 1st M.Sc. program in the fields of Agronomy, Horticulture and Crop Protection in1979.<\/p>\n
As a result of the success it achieved over the years in teaching and research, the School further launched PhD programs in Agronomy, Plant Pathology and Plant Breeding in the year 2001\/2002 and expanded to many other M.Sc. and PhD programs is among the early efforts of the School in trying to meet the postgraduate level trained manpower needs of the nation.<\/p>\n
