About GATE Agricultural Engineering (GATE AG) 2027

The GATE Agricultural Engineering (GATE AG) is one of the most competitive entrance exams, conducted by the IIT Roorkee (2027). Preparing for the GATE AG requires systematic practice, conceptual clarity, and regular self-evaluation. Our platform offers dynamic mock tests, previous years' resolved papers, and AI-enabled analysis to help you secure a top rank.

Frequently Asked Questions

What PSUs recruit through GATE AG?

GATE AG qualifiers can get into ICAR (Indian Council of Agricultural Research), NABARD, FCI (Food Corporation of India), state agriculture departments, and research institutes like PAU, IARI.

What are key subjects in GATE AG?

Farm Machinery & Power, Soil & Water Conservation, Irrigation & Drainage, Post-Harvest Technology, and Agricultural Process Engineering are the main GATE AG subjects.

What MTech can I pursue with GATE AG?

IIT Kharagpur, IIT Roorkee, IARI, and several agricultural universities offer MTech in Agricultural Engineering with specialisations in Farm Machinery, Soil & Water, or Food Process Engineering.

Is GATE AG competitive?

GATE AG is a niche paper with 7,000-10,000 applicants annually. Competition is moderate — a reasonable score can yield good ranks compared to mainstream GATE papers like CS or ME.

Can GATE AG help in getting research fellowships?

Yes, ICAR-JRF and SRF fellowships for Agricultural Engineering research are available. GATE AG score also helps in CSIR lab and DRDO DRDE recruitment for agri-engineering positions.

How to Prepare for GATE AG

1

Farm Machinery and Soil & Water Conservation together carry 30+ marks — start with these chapters

2

Agricultural Process Engineering (drying, milling, storage) has predictable numerical questions

3

Irrigation Engineering (hydraulics, design of canals) overlaps with Civil Engineering — use common resources

4

ICAR crop science knowledge helps in understanding context — agricultural awareness improves accuracy
