The Complete University Guide 2013 has voted Reading as the best university in the United Kingdom for agriculture.
Reading has featured among the top three every year for the past four years. The University is also ranked number one by the Guardian University Guide and number two by the Times Good University Guide.
"We are delighted at the news. Being routinely ranked at the top of league tables reflects our commitment to add value to the experience of our students, and to serve the industries to which they aspire" said Professor Mike Gooding, Head of Agriculture.
"There are many graduate opportunities to improve food security, environmental sustainability, and diet with good business sense."
Agriculture students are offered placements with the industry, lasting up to a year, as part of their course.
