An analysis of 11,593 dissertations accepted by 64 State Agricultural Universities (SAUs) indicated that 7,276 (62.8%) dissertations were submitted by male scholars, while, 4,317 (37.2%) by female scholars. The highest number of dissertations was accepted by Indian Agricultural Research Institute (New Delhi) followed by Indian Veterinary Research Institute (Izatnagar) and Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology (Pant Nagar). The highest number of dissertations by women scholars was accepted by Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology (GBPUAT) followed by Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University (CCS HAU) and Punjab Agricultural University (PAU). The maximum increase in the value of Transformative Activity Index (TAI) is for Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences (SHIATS) followed by Acharya N. G. Ranga Agricultural University (ANGRAU) indicating an increase in productivity at these SAUs in the second block of 2016-2020. The highest decrease in TAI is for Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU) followed by Navsari Agricultural University (NAU) and University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS, Dharwad) indicating that the dissertations accepted by these SAUs decreased in the later period. The number of researchers supervised per supervisor for male and female supervisors is equal. However, it varied from one SAU to another SAU for both male and female supervisors. Among the male supervisors, the highest number of students was supervised at Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth (MPKV), while it was the highest for women supervisors at Dr. Yashwant Singh Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry (DYSPUHF). Among all the supervisors Professor Nivedita Sharma of DYSPUHF, Solan supervised the highest number of students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
