refers to “Rural Entrepreneurship Awareness Development
Yojana”.
To reorient graduates of agriculture and allied subjects for
ensuring and assuring employability and develop
entrepreneurs for emerging knowledge intensive agriculture,
the component envisages the introduction of the programme
as an essential prerequisite for the award of degree to ensure
hands on experience and practical training.
The components:
• Rural Agricultural Work Experience (RAWE)&
• In-Plant Training/Agro Industrial Attachment(AIA)

4. The Rural Agricultural Work Experience (RAWE) helps the students primarily to
understand the rural situations, status of Agricultural technologies adopted by farmers,
prioritize the farmer’s problems and to develop skills & attitude of working with farm
families for overall development in rural area.
The students will undertake this program during the seventh semester for a total duration
of 20 weeks with a weightage of 0+20 credit hours in two parts namely RAWE and AIA. It
will consist of general orientation and on campus training by different faculties followed by
village attachment/unit attachment in University/ College/ KVK or a research station. The
students would be attached with the agro-industries to get an experience of the industrial
environment and working. Due weightage in terms of credit hours will be given depending
upon the duration of stay of students in villages/agro- industries. At the end of RAWE &
AIA, the students will be given one week for project report preparation, presentation and
evaluation. The students would be required to record their observations in field and agro-
industries on daily basis and will prepare their project report based on these observation.
Objectives of RAWE PROGRAMME
1. To provide an opportunity to the students to understand the rural setting in relation to
agriculture and allied activities.
2. To make the students familiar with socio-economic conditions of the farmers and their
problems.
3. To impart diagnostic and remedial knowledge to the students relevant to real field
situations through practical training.
4. To develop communication skills in students using extension teaching methods in
transfer of technology.
5. To develop confidence and competence to solve agricultural problems.

5. AGRO-INDUSTRIAL ATTACHMENT (AIA)
Technology and globalization are ushering an era of unprecedented change. The need and
pressure for change and innovation is immense. To enrich the practical knowledge of the
students, in-plant training shall be mandatory in the last semester for a period of up to 3 weeks.
In this training, students will have to study a problem in industrial perspective and submit the
reports to the college. Such in-plant trainings will provide an industrial exposure to the students
as well as to develop their career in the high tech industrial requirements. In-Plant training is
meant to correlate theory and actual practices in the industries. It is expected that sense of
running an industry may be articulated in right way through this type of industrial attachment
mode.
OBJECTIVE:
1. To expose the students to Industrial environment, this cannot be simulated in the university.
2. To familiarize the students with various Materials, Machines, Processes, Products and their
applications along with relevant aspects of shop management.
3. To make the students understand the psychology of the workers, and approach to problems
along with the practices followed at factory
4. To understand the scope, functions and job responsibilities in various departments of an
