Our Story

Rooted in Khandesh,
Competitive Across the World

Established in 2008 under the visionary Poojya Sane Guruji Vidya Prasarak (PSGVP) Mandal, the K. V. Patel College of Agriculture is named in honour of the Late Shri. K. V. Patel. It stands as a living tribute to the Mandal's 50-year mission of bringing quality higher education to the rural and tribal communities of North-West Maharashtra.

Situated in the fertile Tapti Valley between the Satpuda ranges and the Gomai and Susari rivers, our 200-acre integrated campus is more than an institution — it is a promise of progress for the Khandesh region. With MPKV Rahuri affiliation and an ICAR-aligned curriculum, we shape students into "Global Agricos" — professionals with the scientific knowledge to transform India's agricultural future.
