Programme Overview

Crop management combines theoretical knowledge with practical field applications. Students learn about crop physiology, planting techniques, irrigation scheduling, weed and pest control, harvesting strategies, and post-harvest handling. Emphasis is also placed on sustainable practices, climate-smart agriculture, and the use of modern technologies such as precision farming, GIS, and remote sensing. We aim to advance sustainable, efficient, and climate-resilient farming systems To provide high-quality education, practical training, and research opportunities in crop management that equip students with the knowledge, skills, and innovation. Crop Management offers a broad and dynamic field of study with wide-ranging applications in modern agriculture.
