About
I'm Piyush Kumar. I completed my B.Sc. in Agriculture from Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh. I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Plant Pathology at Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Pusa, Bihar. My research focuses on the in-vitro evaluation of natural components and the role of meteorological factors on sugarcane wilt disease caused by Fusarium sacchari, under the guidance of my major advisor, Md. Minnatullah, at the Hi-Tech lab SRI, PUSA.
