Professional Summary

I, Dr. Nitin Barker, have been working as a teaching faculty in the Department of Agricultural Economics (Naini Agricultural Institute) at Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Science- Prayagraj for more than 12 years. I completed my PhD studies in the field of Agribusiness, where I focussed on Agri-Supply Chain Management. I did my PGDABM from National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE), Hyderabad. I hold an MBA Agribusiness degree from Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Science, Prayagraj. I am the Batch Co-ordinator and the Placement Co-ordinator of the Department of Agricultural Economics since 2014. As I am the placement coordinator of the Department of Agricultural Economics, I help students to develop their personality i.e. to enhance and groom the outer and inner self to bring about a positive change in them. This process includes boosting one’s confidence, improving communication and language speaking abilities, widening ones scope of knowledge, developing certain hobbies or skills, learning fine etiquettes and manners, adding style and grace to the way one looks, talks and walks and overall imbibing oneself with positivity, liveliness and peace. I make sure that they are fully prepared to face the challenges of the world with confidence and smile. I have been taking guest lectures at the University of Allahabad, Ewing Christian College and Iswar Saran Degree College. I have published many research papers in reputed journals like International Journal of Agriculture Science, International Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Research and International Journal of Current Advanced Research. Presently I am guiding four PhD scholars in my department.
