Crop Science Practice Test for Future Agriculturists

ByAditya Abhishek

Hey students, preparing for your upcoming agriculture examinations but confused about whether your preparation is going well or not? Well, no more! At Agriculture Review, we keep updating new test series based on previous years’ questions of the PRC Licensure Examination for Agriculturists.

In this test, you have to attempt 100 questions from the Crop Science subject. Attempting all questions is necessary to identify your strengths and weaknesses. After completing the test, you can take a screenshot of your result for future reference and compare it with past performances. To stay updated with regular test series, click on the bell icon at the bottom left corner of the screen.

You can also join our Facebook Broadcast Channel, where we regularly share newly updated questions. All the best for today—I hope you become a registered Agriculturist soon!
