This document outlines the proposed courses for an undergraduate agriculture program over four years. In the first year, compulsory courses include environmental studies, communication skills, and an introduction to intellectual property rights. The core agriculture courses cover topics like crop production, horticulture, soil science, pest management, and farm management. Subsequent years build on these foundations with courses in agronomy, soil science, entomology, plant pathology, genetics, and more advanced topics such as water management, biotechnology, and climate resilient agriculture. Electives are available in areas like agronomy, horticulture, and entomology.
