Free Coaching & Notes

CUET (Common University Entrance Test) Agriculture is conducted by NTA for UG admission to BSc Agriculture and related programmes at central universities across India. Exam dates: May 11–31, 2026. Domain subject code: 302. 50 questions, attempt any 40. Marking: +5 correct, -1 wrong.

CUET Agriculture (Domain Subject Code 302) has 50 questions but you attempt any 40. With +5 marks per correct answer, the maximum score is 200 marks (40 × 5). There is -1 negative marking for each wrong answer.

CUET Agriculture syllabus is based on NCERT Class 11–12 Agriculture and Biology. It covers 5 units: Agrometeorology & Genetics (12–15Q), Livestock & Fisheries (5–7Q), Crop Production & Soil Science (15–18Q), Horticulture (10–13Q), and Biology Foundation (8–10Q). Total 50 questions, attempt 40.

Start with NCERT Class 11-12 Biology and Agriculture textbooks. Then use AgriDots free notes for CUET Agriculture which cover all 5 units with AI quizzes. Arihant CUET Agriculture Guide and Oswaal Objective Agriculture (CUET Edition) are good supplementary books.

Eligibility: Class 12 pass (or appearing) with Agriculture/Biology as one of the subjects. Minimum marks vary by university (generally 50–60% for general category). Age: no upper limit for most universities. Check individual university cutoffs after CUET results.

CUET Agriculture is based on NCERT Class 11-12 level. Crop Production and Genetics units carry the highest weightage. Students with Agriculture background have a significant advantage. 2–3 months of focused preparation with AgriDots free notes and practice tests is sufficient.

Students search this a lot because university rules can differ. The safe approach is to treat Agriculture or Biology background as highly relevant and then verify the exact subject-combination rule of each university that accepts CUET scores for agriculture admission.

NCERT is the foundation and should be your first source, especially for Biology-based portions and basic concept clarity. After that, most students still need revision notes, MCQs, and previous year style practice to improve speed and score.

Start with the highest-yield units first, usually Crop Production plus Agrometeorology and Genetics, then cover Horticulture, Biology Foundation, and Livestock sections. After one reading, move into topic-wise tests and previous year practice instead of only rereading notes.

This depends on the participating universities and their counselling rules for that cycle. Students usually use CUET Agriculture to target central-university and CUET-accepting agriculture seats, then compare cutoffs and admission notices after results.

Yes. CUET Agriculture builds an early base in crop science, soil science, horticulture, genetics, and allied subjects. That base becomes useful later for BSc Agriculture coursework and then for exams like IBPS AFO, NABARD, FCI, and state agriculture recruitment.
