Author(s): BVSGS Deepika, CM Savitha and Vishwanath H

Abstract: Agricultural diploma is the programme that deals with the study of farming methodologies and the use of farming machinery. The study was conducted in three constituent agricultural diploma colleges of Acharya N.G. Agricultural University during 2021-22 to analyze attitude of the students undergoing agricultural diploma programme by collecting information from a total of 90 respondents (30 from each agricultural diploma college) using interview schedule. For measuring the attitude of students undergoing agricultural diploma programme scale adopted by Ajit (2004) was used with some modifications. The findings reveal that less than half of the students undergoing diploma programme had favourable attitude (43.33%) followed by highly favourable attitude (28.89%) and unfavourable attitude (27.78%) towards agricultural diploma programme. The agricultural diploma program at Acharya N.G. Agricultural University is well-regarded by a majority of its students, but by addressing gaps in the curriculum, making the course more practical oriented, imparting suitable skills to students and job placement services can better meet the needs of students, leading to a more favorable attitude towards the program and better preparation for careers in agriculture.
