My name is Izhar Ali. I completed my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from the Agricultural University Peshawar, Pakistan. I then received a CSC Scholarship for my PhD, which I completed in 2020 at Guangxi University, China, in the College of Agriculture, Department of Agronomy.
Currently, I am pursuing a postdoctoral fellowship at Guangxi University, China, focusing on crop physiology, morphology, root development, grain quality, soil physio-biochemical properties, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Introduction of the University of Agriculture Peshawar Pakistan
Agronomy
Islamia College Peshawar established the Department of Agronomy in 1933. Over time, the department expanded its academic offerings, leading to the creation of additional departments.
In 1968, it was declared a fully independent College of Agriculture. Later, in 1976, it became a faculty, and in 1981, it was granted university status. Since its establishment, Agronomy has been recognized as the parent department at Peshawar's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University.
The goal of the Department of Agronomy is to provide high-quality academic training through teaching, research, and outreach in areas such as crop production, crop physiology, stress physiology, crop ecology and climate, seed physiology, seed technology, crop nutrition, natural resource management, and agronomy of arid regions.
The Agricultural University offers specialized courses leading to Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral degrees in various fields, including agriculture, business administration, and computer science. The majority of the faculty members in the Agronomy Department hold PhDs and have completed postdoctoral research in developed countries such as the USA, UK, Japan, Germany, China, and Malaysia.
