To effectively cover the Agriculture Finance, Seed Science, and Agriculture Economics syllabus for IBPS AFO (Agriculture Field Officer), you need a structured approach with the right study materials and regular revision. Start with Agriculture Finance, focusing on topics like priority sector lending, NABARD, Kisan Credit Card (KCC), crop insurance schemes (PMFBY, NAIS), and rural banking institutions. Study government initiatives, financial inclusion policies, and the role of commercial banks in agriculture lending. For Seed Science, cover seed production, seed certification, seed processing, types of seeds (hybrid, GM, foundation, breeder), and storage techniques. Refer to ICAR and NSC guidelines, and understand seed policies in India. In Agriculture Economics, focus on topics like farm management, agricultural marketing, price policy, MSP (Minimum Support Price), WTO agreements on agriculture, and supply chain management. Use standard books like R.K. Sharma, S.R. Kantwa. Make short notes for revision, practice previous years’ question papers, and attempt mock tests regularly to improve speed and accuracy. Stay updated with current affairs related to agriculture, government schemes, and budget allocations for the sector, as these are crucial for the exam.
