Abstract
Agricultural enlightenment plays a pivotal role in nurturing adept human capital to tackle the trials confronted by Indian farming. In the past ten years, the allure of higher agricultural learning has surged due to the accessibility of superior education, desirability within the job market, and the broadening array of career prospects spanning social and geographical spheres. While persisting in bestowing superior and more pertinent agricultural instruction, ICAR, in collaboration with the World Bank, embarked on the National Agricultural Higher Education Project (NAHEP) in 2017, blazing a new trail. This endeavor aims to elevate the caliber and pertinence of advanced agricultural education across the nation. NAHEP has also embraced inclusivity by furnishing domestic and global tutelage to scholars and educators, fostering a sense of belonging. This discourse proposes pivotal strategies to propel this initiative and ensure its lasting impact on Agricultural Sciences.
