Training and Placement
Training and placement are the most crucial components of our MBA programme, as they play a significant role in shaping students into capable professionals who can compete in the competitive agricultural business sector. Through training, students gain specialized knowledge in agricultural markets, trade policies, farm management, food production, and agribusiness law, all of which are essential for effective decision-making. A placement in the agribusiness sector allows students to apply these specialized skills in a real market context, learning firsthand how the industry functions and what it takes to manage agricultural business operations. Recognizing the significant importance of training and placement, PRTF has established a collaboration with Acharyapuram Business School (ABMS).
