    \u00a0<\/strong>History of B.Sc. (AgMaco) Under Graduate Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Over years, it has been realised that the main problem confronting agricultural sector is not about increasing production, but about evolving efficient systems of marketing for the sale of the farm produce in such a way that the producers get remunerative prices.\u00a0 This requires preparing skilled manpower to address various types of problems associated with traditional marketing system and deploying them in right places for finding practical solutions.\u00a0 In fact, the National Commission on Agriculture stated way back in 1976 that there was a need for starting specialized degree programmes in farm universities to create experts capable of dealing with diverse problems plaguing agricultural marketing system of the country.\u00a0 It was in this context that late Shri. K.H. Patil, the then Minister of Cooperation, Government of Karnataka and late Dr. H. R. Arakeri, the then Vice-Chancellor of UAS, Bangalore and member of National Commission on Agriculture (1976) sought to create human resources capable of effectively dealing with the issues relating to agricultural marketing, cooperation, agricultural finance, grading, trade, banking, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    As a step towards this, a four year degree programme, B.Sc. (Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation), the first of its kind in the country, was started during the academic year 1976-77 by the erstwhile University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore (UAS, Bangalore) at two campuses, namely, Dharwad and Bangalore.\u00a0 For smooth running of this undergraduate degree programme, a separate Department of Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation was established both at Dharwad and Bangalore campuses of UAS, Bangalore<\/u>.<\/strong>\u00a0 With the creation of UAS, Dharwad from out of UAS, Bangalore in 1986, both universities continued the Department of Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation offering B.Sc. (Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation) degree programme.\u00a0 The University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad renamed the Department of Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation as the Department of Agribusiness Management<\/u><\/strong> subsequently in recognition of Department\u2019s involvement in offering Post-Graduate and Ph.D. programmes in Agribusiness Management in addition to the Under Graduate programme. Recently, in line with the recommendations of V Deans Committee report with respect to the nomenclatures of different undergraduate degree programmes of farm universities across the country, the nomenclature of B.Sc. (Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation) was also changed to B.Sc. (Hons.) in Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation. Off late from academic year 2019-20 onwards,\u00a0 the B.Sc. (Hons.) in Agricultural Marketing and Cooperation degree programme was discontinued and a new degree programme, [B.Sc. (Hons.) Agri-business Management] was introduced.<\/p>\n

    Student Intake <\/strong><\/p>\n

    B.Sc. (Ag.Maco) \/ B.Sc. (Hons.) Agribusiness Management: <\/strong>The student intake which was at a dismal figure of 10-30 for B.Sc. (Ag.Maco) degree programme when it was introduced, was significantly enhanced to nearly about 100 students per year, owing to the awareness about the scope of the degree programme among the aspiring candidates. Presently, the intake for the programme has been fixed by the University at 80 students.\u00a0 The number of students, who were graduated in the programme over years has been depicted below:<\/p>\n\n\n
