About School of Agriculture Science
If you drive out past the industrial estates of Rajkot along the Bhavnagar Highway, the dry landscape of Saurashtra starts to open up. This is where the School of Agriculture Science operates, deliberately positioned where the clayey black soil and water-management challenges of rural Gujarat are right outside the classroom door. Instead of teaching farming through textbooks, the faculty here takes advantage of the region's semi-arid realities to train students in real-time crop survival and modern agrarian businesses.
