The official NIRF 2025 Agriculture ranking in this database contains 40 ranked institutions. Indian Agricultural Research Institute leads at rank 1 with a score of 89.23. ICAR - National Dairy Research Institute is second and Punjab Agricultural University is third.
Among institutions classified by NIRFRank, 37 are government and 3 are private. Amity Noida is the leading private entry at rank 15 with a score of 58.14. The list covers 20 states and 37 cities. A smaller rank number is better, and scores should be compared only within the same category and year.
Movement compares each year with the preceding available edition. Newly listed means absent from the comparison year, not necessarily a first appearance. Absence does not establish why an institution is missing. Rank changes alone do not explain changes in quality.
