PREFACE
Agriculture is backbone of Indian economy. It has been a main stay of human beings
since time immemorial.
Its importance can be truly felt from the words of India’s first Prime Minister
Jawaharlal Nehru-
“EVERYTHING CAN WAIT BUT AGRICULTURE CAN NOT”
Agricultural education is an important means of ensuring increased agricultural productivity,
sustainability, environmental and ecological security, profitability, job security and equity.
With the rising agricultural production in the country and introduction of modern
technology in the production and processing of agricultural produce, the concept of farming is
shifting from survival and growth to value added agri - business approach. During 2014-15,
agricultural sector contributed to approx. 13.5% of India’ GDP and 10.23% of total exports,
besides providing employment to around 600 million of the work force.
This will lead to major opportunities in high growth, mass - based, high volume markets
generating enormous opportunities for the corporate sector.
The third Dean's Committee (1995) suggested model academic regulations and curricula
for agriculture graduates. Special emphasis was given to practical training to inculcate skill and
confidence among the undergraduates to enable them to meet the new challenges. To achieve
this goal, RAWE PROGRAMME in actual farming situation has been included in the course
curriculum of the B.Sc. Agri. students in addition to the on -going programme of practical
training at this university. Such a programme will provide and opportunity to the agricultural
graduates to develop self - confidence in farming and better understanding of the practical
problems faced in the field by the farmers as well as socio - economic aspects of the village life
more closely.
The main objective of RAWE is to teach the student practically which the student learnt
theoretically in college. It is the opportunity to gain the experience of problem faced by the
farmers in growing crops and other enterprises. This report owes its preparation to the sincere
and meticulous analysis of situation of village Nagal. This report contains the information on
area, population, culture, cropping pattern, economic status, adoption of crop varieties etc.

INTRODUCTION
Introduction of Rural Agricultural Work Experience (RAWE) Programme
With the introduction of green revolution in India, agriculture in India has faced a
number of turns, success stories and of course failures at certain steps too. With the ever
increasing population of India, need for space and food has increased several times. Area under
agriculture is limited and decreasing day by day, but demand for more production is increasing.
So India has felt need of boost in agriculture, for this India has to depend on students of
agriculture and farmers. Because the scientists and researchers we see today were students of
yesterday and vice-versa. So as agriculture depends on these scientists, researchers and farmers
so alternately agriculture depends on students. Hence it is obvious that bright agriculture of
future means bright students of today. ICAR has felt this necessity for making its students future
bright because not only agriculture but whole Indian economy and hence India depends on it.
An important step in this connection was taken by the ICAR by appointing 2nd Dean's
Committee in April 1979. The Dean's Committee pointed out weakness in terms of need of
practical training in the Curricula of agriculture graduate degree. The committee also
recommended that the practical training should be in production-oriented aspects, internship
(IAP) and work experience in village.
The third Dean's Committee (1995) suggested model academic regulations and
Curricula for agriculture graduates. Special emphasis was given to practical training to inculcate
skill and confidence among the undergraduates to enable them to meet the new challenges. To
achieve this goal, RAWE PROGRAMME in actual farming situation has been included in the
course curriculum of the B.Sc. Agriculture Students in addition to the ongoing programme of
practical training at this university. Such a programme will provide an opportunity to be
agricultural graduates to develop self -confidence in farming and better understanding of the
practical problems faced in the field by farmers as well as socio-economic aspects of the village
life more closely.
With the rising agricultural production in the country and introduction of modern
technology and processing in the production and processing of agricultural produce, the concept

9. 9
of farming in shifting from survival and growth to value added agri-business approach. The food
industry in India is a very high multiplier (2.4), which is greater than that of power and telecome
sector. Today, the food industry is India is worth Rs. 250,000 crores, which is expected to rise to
Rs.680, 000 crores by the year 2008. This will lead to major opportunities for the corporate
sector.
In this backdrop, there will change will the market i.e. job in government public sector
will recede and tremendous job opportunities will emerge in corporate sector as well as the
opportunities of self-employment. Obviously, there is need to reorient RAWE PROGRAMME
to the new challenges in agriculture, it is felt that there is need to depute items for imparting
them a short training in various agro-industrial units. This will add to their knowledge and give
them an impetus. This will also help in developing competency among agricultural graduates in
the areas of technology managerial skill, agri-business as well as to face future challenges of
employment.
The RAWE PROGRAMME is offered in the second semester of final year, to only
those B.Sc.(Hons.) Agri.Students who have already completed all the course work and other
prescribed requirements for the B.Sc. (Hons) Agri.Degree.
RAWE is aimed at total development of students in agriculture both theoretically and
practically. It makes its student to analyze and find possible solutions to rural agriculture on their
own. So students are tested for their knowledge and it gives students a moral and confidence
which is helpful to them in future. RAWE actually is aimed at connecting students to agriculture
by their soul and mind. So in end of this programme students are of agriculture, for agriculture,
and by agriculture. Many or say most of these work in future in areas of agri research and rest in
other areas of agriculture. RAWE hence provides bright future to agriculture research in INDIA.
This programme hence never ends in a students life who has faced this programme once in his
life. For students of B.Sc (hons.) Agri. in CCS HAU, RAWE is integral part of their life. So
hats off to this great programme and thanks to CCS HAU for making us to face it.

Thus, RAWE is a learner-centered approach of exposing undergraduate students of
college of Agriculture by using principles of “learning by doing” and “seeing is believing” to
provide direction to think and act on their own. It offers a course to students to learn how to be
competent, confident, capable, skillful and able to do work in real life situations. This
experimental system in agricultural education has a strong potential to prepare a better
agricultural technocrats with high level of skill in combination with the modern out-look and
management capacity. RAWE is one of the best means to produce well trained agricultural
graduates with broad based knowledge and techniques to meet the emerging challenges of
agriculture.

HISTORY
This town became the new home of the refugees who migrated to this part of the country
on the partition of the country in 1947 .Rampura Colony, Model Colony, Model Town and
Gandhi Camp areas of modern city were reserved for them, the position remained as such up to
1970s. The place was earlier known as 'Abdullahpur' which was later renamed by the city's
eminent people as Jamnanagar and later on as Yamunanagar. Till 1947, it was a small hamlet of
6000 people, mostly population concentrated around Jagadhri Railway Station and Yamuna
Gali, Old Radaur Road area. After partition of India, many migrants from Punjab in Pakistan
chose to make Yamuna Nagar/Jagadhri their new home, and in the process. adding to the
culture of the town. The area where land was allocated to the migrants, later developed into
the Model Town area of Yamuna Nagar, the centre of the city area. The Topra Asokan pillar of
Delhi was found in the village Topra Kalan, about 20 km from yamunanagar. Archaeological
survey of India has found many Harrapan bricks and stones from the area.
AGRICULTURE

BENEFITS OF RAWE
‘If you provide food to a person, he will be contented for the day and if you teach him how to
grow the crops, he can maintain himself throughout his life and his generations.’
Our population is increasing day by day; therefore, it is necessary to grow more crops that are
productive. Agriculturists are trying for this in multidirectional way having galloping speed and rapid
spread with respect to time and space.
The practical training knowledge and skills required for increasing the productivity of crop to
achieve the goal CCSHAU, Hisar have implemented the Rural Agriculture Work Experience (RAWE)
included in the course curriculum of the B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture in addition to on going programme of
practical training of the university. Such an opportunity to us provide the self confidence in farming and
to better understand the practical problem faced in the field by the farmers and also help us to understand
the socio-economic aspects of the village life more closely and constraints pertaining to adoption of new
technology developed by our scientists.
CONCLUSION
Villagers accept that our rural agricultural work experience programme is useful for both of us.
Villagers used to take us for different field visits with great enthusiasm and use to feelproud in
relating their successfulmanagement techniques of field problems.
The work experience in the village was very useful to us.
We learnt about practical difficulties in propagating a new technology
We observed and experienced practical field situation
We study the crops while farmer cultivate the crops. our aim is to gain knowledge and
experience, while their aim is to run their livelihood and maintain their social status. This course
tries to link the two objectives :
We studied about village infrastructure, characteristics of the farming community, and problem
faced by them .in this course we were able to apply our theoretical knowledge into practical
situation.
This course combines the essence of the research from all the department of agriculture and tries
to make us a full fledged practically oriented agricultural graduate.
We are able to experience the agricultural extension system at state level and its linkage with the
agricultural university.
