Department of Agronomy was established on 16th August 1948 at the erstwhile Assam Agricultural College, Jorhat. The Department possesses a rich history as the pioneering department conferring higher education in agronomy throughout the northeastern region of India. Originating with undergraduate courses, the department expanded its academic horizon over the years. The department introduced M. Sc (Agri) degree program in 1960, before the formal establishment of the Assam Agricultural University in 1969. As a testament to its commitment to academic excellence, the department initiated the Ph.D (Agri) in 1986. The Department of Agronomy has been at the forefront of addressing the regions agricultural challenges and fulfilling crucial research needs in the field crop sector.
The department has 5 All India Coordinating Research Project (AICRP) viz., 1. AICRP on Forage Crops and Utilization ( Year of establishment: 1970). 2. AICRP on Irrigation Water Management ( Year of establishment :1972) . 3. AICRP on Potato ( Year of establishment : 1975) . 4. AICRP on Weed Management ( Year of establishment: 1982) and 5. AICRP on Integrated Farming System ( Year of establishment : 1985). Through theses projects and post graduate research, the department has made significant contribution in development of improved package of practices of field crops.
Mission: Fostering human resource development in crop management and spearheading technological advancement in the field of agronomy. The departments mission involves creation and dissemination of cutting-edge technologies in agronomic management for technology backstopping for farmers, extension workers and policy makers.
