LPU is good if you cant make it to top agriculture colleges like GBPUT, Tamil Nadu Agri university or Hisar University of agri etc. ( can refer ICAR ranking for more information). LPU is a good choice and much better than low ranked agri colleges. Why LPU could be chosen for B.Sc. Agri. - - the latest and updated syllabus - more exposure - first private university to be accredited by ICAR - industry collaboration and other accreditions - various scholarships - LPU is good for B.Sc. Agri and can be considered among top 20 colleges for studying B.Sc. Agriculture.
