I joined the College of Agriculture, Bheemarayanagudi  in the year 2002 July along with Dr. Ramesh Babu and Dr. C.N.Hanchinmani on the same day and stayed there up to Nov- 2008. When I joined the College of Agriculture, it had only building without any facilities. But land, irrigation, students community, staff both teaching and non teaching, and labours were really co-operative and great asset to the institute. I learnt many things from the administration of five Directors of Instructions and Dean. The cordial nature of staff, students and labours is always green memory in my life.


Generally, it is said that the teacher mold  the students life but at B’gudi, in my case it was  students also molded me in a better way.

I had many difficulties at B’gudi which were solved by grace of local deity Bheemaraya (Hanuman). I have experienced the humanity touch by all the local people who guided in many ways. At the moment I am recollecting Sri Bheemreddy Engineer, Sri BhaskarRao Mudbul, Advocate and Educationist Mallana Baireddy (progressive farmer), Dr. RamaRao Kulkarni, KEM School teachers, Arun Kulkarni.

The department of plant pathology started at B’gudi after my joining and then Smt. Jaya laxmi joined the department. Dr. S.V.Hiremath, Dr. Amaresh, Dr.Lokesh help is of great in developing the department of Plant Pathology. I was exposed to farming community with the help of Dr. Upperi and Dr.A.G.Sreenivas.

We started the production of bio-agents like Trichoderma, Rhizobium and PSB for local distribution under revolving fund and mini-mission on cotton scheme.

I am indebted to Dr. Shivaramu, Dr. Tembhurne, Dr. Vendan, Dr. A G Sreenivas, Dr. Susheela, Dr. Venkatesh, Dr. Shrikant Chavan, Dr. Hanchinamani, Dr. Chittapur, Dr. Chandargi, Dr. Shivasharanappa, Dr. Revanappa, Dr. B S Patil, Dr. Vijaykumar, Dr. Kuchanur and non-teaching staff members Meenakshi, Shivappa, Veena, Rayappa, Reddi, Ravi, Chavan, Rayappa, Manappa and all others...
