Hello Candidate, Usually the cut off lies above 85% for general candidates, will land you into a fair chamce to join into your bachelors. But since 2020, due to covid scenerio, there has been a lot of students who scored high percentage of marks. So , in my opinion, the cut off might rise. Cut off also depends upon the number of seats available for a particular subject. So it may vary w.r.t. that also. Conclusion : According to me, it could be around 90% for subjects withs less number of seats. And it may be around 85% for subjects with comparatively higher seats. Good luck.

Simply you have to visit that institute where you want to get admission. With the advent of technology, Agriculture in India is now largely a blend of traditional knowledge refined over years coupled with growing mechanization. I am happy to share about University Institute of Agriculture Sciences (UIAS) of Chandigarh University, which blends modern agriculture education (as per fifth Deans Committee of ICAR) with cutting edge technology in its curriculum.
