This is the most common path. You can pursue a B.Tech in Agricultural Engineering, B.Sc. in Agricultural Engineering, or a similar degree from a reputable university. These programs typically last four years. Some institutions offer diploma programs in Agricultural Engineering, which can be completed in two to three years. However, a diploma might limit your job prospects compared to a bachelor's degree.


Most programs require you to have completed class 12th with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) or Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB).

Depending on the university, you might need to appear for entrance exams like JEE Main, state-level engineering entrance exams, or university-specific entrance exams.

B.Sc. in Agriculture: This degree focuses more on the scientific aspects of agriculture, including soil science, plant science, and animal science. While it might not have the same engineering focus as a B.Tech, it can still equip you with valuable knowledge for a career in agriculture.


Agricultural engineers play a crucial role in improving agricultural practices and efficiency. Here are some of their common duties:

  • Design and development of agricultural machinery and equipment.
  • Irrigation system design and management.
  • Farm layout and planning.
  • Application of engineering principles to solve problems related to soil and water conservation.
  • Developing sustainable agricultural practices.
  • Utilizing technology for precision agriculture (using data and sensors to optimize crop yield).
  • Research and development of new agricultural technologies.


    I hope it helps!
