The Department of Agricultural and Rural Management (ARM) was started on 14th February 2001 keeping in view the demand for research and manpower inputs for the government and private sectors on various aspects of Agricultural and Rural Management. The thrust of the Department is to strengthen teaching, research and training in agribusiness and rural management.
Department of Agricultural and Rural Management (ARM) offers B.S.(Hons) Agribusiness Management, M.B.A.(Agribusiness Management) and Ph,D in Agribusiness management. The Doctoral Programme in Management (Ph.D – Agribusiness Management) is one of the preferred programmes for the ICAR students from various States of the country.
We at department undertake research in the areas of Management of Agribusiness and Entrepreneurship, Institutions for Agribusiness Development and Supply Chain Management and Value Chain Analysis.
The graduates of B.S.(ABM) of the department are employed in agri-input industries, banking, insurance, retailing, food processing, etc. Many of the students pursue post graduate degrees in nationally reputed institutions like IIM, IRMA, MANAGE, NAARM, EDI, VAMNICOM, IIPM etc.,
MBA graduates have been placed in input sectors, production, processing, transportation, packaging, logistics, supply chain, organized retail, banking, insurance, agri-clinics and consultancy sectors. Few of them have become entrepreneurs in agribusiness.
I assure that, students can have better learning and research experience at this Department. I am happy to welcome the students and researchers across the country to have better experience at Department of ARM.
