FOREWORD
Higher agricultural education system in Andhra Pradesh has provided technically
qualified human resource that played the fundamental role in transformation of agriculture.
With time, the problems confronted by agriculture changed, necessitating quality human
resource trained in contemporary and cutting edge technologies. The state food grain production
is projected to 21.8 in 2012-13 as against 18.26 million tonnes in 2011-12. Formal agricultural
education is needed for the training of skilled professionals to support in achieving these
changes and targets. At the same time global standards and enhanced competitiveness
have to be maintained while producing these graduates. Above all, the future graduates need
to be professionals who possess confidence and competence to analyse an agricultural
problem and be able to suggest solutions to alleviate it. Also, whether the intent is to serve
the farming community, to get employment with the private sector or to launch a self-managed
professional venture, the future graduates must be taught in new subject areas and exposed
more and more to learning by practice in real life situation of field.
Therefore, efforts are made by the university to attune agricultural education curriculum
and its delivery to overarch the present day needs of farmers and future demands of job
markets with quality agricultural graduates. So, new courses in B.Sc (Ag) on Skill Practice
(18 modules) are introduced in both semesters of the first year from the academic year
2012-13. In addition, AGRI– 206, 207, 306 and 307 on Commercial Crop Production are also
introduced in B.Sc (Ag) second and third years. These courses are unique in the agricultural
education in the country. With these new additions the total credit load has gone up to 170,
the highest in any SAU, in the country.
Further, to empower the agricultural graduates with knowledge and skills in industrial
agriculture to get absorbed in the fast expanding agro-industry and to inject entrepreneurial
spirit to set up an agri-enterprise independently the composite “RAWEP-AELP-INTERNSHIP”
recommended by the ICAR is also introduced from the academic year 2012-13.
The GREEN BOOK-2012 is embedded with these new additions. This book helps
the teachers in uniform and systematic coverage of updated syllabus, setting standard question
papers across all the agricultural colleges of the university.
I congratulate the team of editors and supporting staff in bringing out this most
useful book for the benefit of teachers and students.
