Agricultural potential and specific ecological conditions of the region
led to the establishment of Agriculture College of Bahauddin Zakariya
University, Multan in 1989. The construction of the College building
was started in 1990. Three academic blocks, one for Agronomy and
Soil Science, second for Agricultural Entomology and Plant Pathology
and third for Horticulture and Plant Breeding and Genetics have been
constructed. A boys hostel [Hamza Hall] for 250 students and 19
residences for academic staff have also been constructed. Eight
research laboratories (in the field of Agronomy, Soil Science, Food
Science, Entomology, Plant Pathology Forestry, Range and Wildlife
Management, Horticulture and Plant Breeding and Genetics) have been set up for conduct of practical and research
work. In addition Central Postgraduate
Research Laboratory and Chrysopa
Research Laboratory have been established
recently for postgraduate students.
Moreover, construction of academic block
for Agricultural Economics and Biometrics and
Agricultural Education and Extension
departments along with 75 staff residences
have been completed recently.
From year 2009, the College has been
elevated to the status of an independent
faculty named Faculty of Agriculture and
Agricultural Engineering. Four new
departments have been established with keen
interest and auspicious guidance of Worthy
Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Muhammad Zafar
Ullah, and dynamic leadership of Principal,
Prof. Dr. Mushtaq A. Saleem and on the
intelectual input of teachers.
Under the directive of Governor Punjab/
Chancellor, a new Department of Agricultural
Engineering was established at the College
w.e.f. September 2004. The department
offers courses of studies leading to degree of
Bachelor of Science and Ph. D. in Agricultural
Engineering. In these degree programmes, the
same fundamental courses are taught as
approved by the HEC and in other
Agricultural Engineering Institutions with
emphasis on agricultural problems, like Water
Management, Farm Machinery and
Environmental Pollution etc. Six laboratories
which include Surveying Laboratory,
Drawing Hall, Fluid Mechanics Laboratory,
Soil Mechanics Laboratory, Engineering
Mechanics Laboratory and I.C. Engine and
Tractor Laboratory have been set up for
conduct of practical work to the students of
Agricultural Engineering while the
establishment of other laboratories and a
Civic Center is in process. There are
following three Disciplines under the
Umbrella of Agricultural Engineering and
Technology:
i) Water Engineering and Management
(WEM).
ii) Farm Machinery Energy (FME).
iii) Structure and Environmental Engineering
(SEE).
iv) Food Process Engineering (FPE).
At present the Faculty has 45 regular
teachers and a number of visiting teachers
borrowed from various departments of the
University, Agriculture Departments and
Institutes at Multan. Out of 45 regular
teachers, 26 are Ph.D. degrees holders, while
Ph.D. of nine teachers is near to completion
and seven are registered in various
universities. Sixteen teachers have done their
doctorate or post doctorate form various
universities of technologically advanced
countries like, Australia, China, Japan, Korea,
UK and USA, having a large number of
research publication of high impact factor. So
far one Professor and six Assistant
Professors are serving under Tenure Track
System of HEC and one Professor is taken
from Australia under Foreign Faculty
Program of HEC.
Experimental/Research Farm
Agricultural Experimental Farm of 40 acres is
attached with the Faculty for demonstration
of crop production practices, and 20 acres are
reserved for faculty research. Research work
has been initiated on various aspects of field
and horticultural crops. The emphasis is on
the development of improved varieties of
crop along with improvement of cultural
practices, cropping system, weed control,
insect toxicology, insecticide resistance,
integrated pest management strategies and
Agro-forestry suited to the local conditions.
Nine acres of mango and citrus orchard have
been established under drip irrigation system.
Six rows of different tree species along with
the College boundary wall irrigated with
bubbler and drip irrigation system have also
been established for clean and green
environment.
College Library
The Faculty library has been shifted in new
building and more than six thousand volumes
of latest books on various disciplines of
agriculture and allied sciences are available. It
has been converted into fully air-conditioned
library to facilitate the readers.
