President's Message

Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Gramin Vikas Pratisthan, Mirajgaon

          In view of the social and educational development of farming and rural community,  established Sadguru Udyog Samuh in 1985 and in 2001 established the Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Bigarsheti Patsanstha. Farming population has major contribution in rural area and Animal Husbandry is major subsidiary enterprises of farmers so started Diploma course in Animal husbandry and Dairy technology under Nagpur University in the year 2002 and Agricultural Polytechnic School in the year 2004. Under-graduation courses of agricultural and allied sector was the need of rural students so with this view the foundation was laid down for  Sadguru College of Agriculture in the year 2009 and Shiv Shankar College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology in the year 2014  at Mirajgaon for better knowledge of farming and subsidiary enterprises. School dropout students at rural area are high as compare to urban area so for them started Yashwanrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University’s Agricultural Education Centre at Sadguru College of Agriculture, Mirajgaon in the year 2012 and in 2015-16 established Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Junior College at Mirajgaon. 

           Provided employments to many students through multistate bank and also given guidance and fund to growing entrepreneurs through multistate bank. Also organized free medical camps in rural villages with specialized doctors from renowned hospitals and also provide free checkups, medicines and treatments to people according to their need.

        Modern agriculture practices are increasingly turning out to be knowledge based systems. India does require agriculture education at all levels so that our farmers are better equipped to handle the challenges of globalization with many MNCs have forayed into the segment with dozens of agro-products with better packaging and high decibel marketing; subsequently this has resulted as a threat to Indian farmers who lack professional expertise to deal with these issues. Hence the need of the hour is to give agricultural education a high priority. Despite rapid strides by the agriculture sector, still there exist many grey areas which require immediate attention. Keeping into account of the fact that increased productivity and production must be the sole objective of agricultural research, our scientific community is leaving no stone unturned for bringing about paradigm changes in agriculture education in the country. Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Pratishtan has decided to start Agriculture and Agricultural Allied Colleges to produce practicing agriculture scientists, engineers and marketing proffesionals etc. To provide high class learning and teaching environment to Students and Teachers, comparable to the best of any urban area to the rural masses and empowering them through advanced Agricultural Education

Many of our past students are holding prestigious positions in the reputed organisations within the country and abroad. The Shri Sant Gajanan Maharaj Gramin Vikas Pratisthan institute is known for the moral values, ethics and contributing a lot for the overall upliftment of the society.

I, being the President welcome you and appeal you to be the member of our family.

We have endeavored to create a highly inspiring atmosphere and learning environment in a beautiful campus. Apart from quality education, SSCAET shoulders the responsibility of Agricultural Research of par excellence meeting the escalating demands of food grains as well as successful transfer of technologies through a strong network of extension education imparted to the farmers.

I believe that my Students and Faculty are like the missiles, and can sky rocket their aspirations, materialize them and become global citizens.
