SDAU Young Professional-II Agribusiness Recruitment 2026

SDAU Young Professional-II Recruitment 2026: Overview

Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University (SDAU) is hiring a Young Professional-II at its College of Agribusiness Management in Sardarkrushinagar, Banaskantha district, Gujarat. The post sits under the research project "Economic evaluation and sustainability of natural farming-based agro-ecosystems in Gujarat", so the work is about measuring whether natural farming pays off for farmers in the state.

This is a contract job tied to the project, filled through a walk-in interview at the college. It suits you if you hold a Master's in Agricultural Economics or Agribusiness Management and like working with field data. The college prefers candidates who know impact assessment and econometric analysis, can handle data in MS Office and Stata, and write well — so a dissertation built on survey data or regression work will help your case.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Tenure: The post is purely temporary and runs till 31 March 2027, or for as long as project funds last.

• Medical fitness: You must give a medical fitness certificate when you join.
• Interview costs: You attend the interview at your own cost; no travel allowance is mentioned.
