This study was conducted on the final year students of agriculture in Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. The objective of the study was to observe that which of the students (either of rural or urban backgrounds) perform better in agriculture during their degree programme. Both of the programme (6 year & 4 year programme) students were included in the population and their total number was 94. The study reveals that urban students performed academically better than rural students but general thinking is that rural students should perform better in agriculture.
