Exam & selection
Selection is through a Computer-Based Test (CBT) conducted from 10 July 2026 in two shifts at 11 centres across Madhya Pradesh. The objective test is school-science based; MPESB gives the exact number of questions, marks and the section split in the official bulletin, and applies normalisation across shifts where required. A category-wise merit list is then prepared, after which online counselling and seat allotment are held for the ~1,100 diploma seats, followed by document verification and admission.
Why an Animal Husbandry / Dairy diploma
These two-year diplomas are practical, sector-focused qualifications for India's large and growing livestock and dairy economy. Graduates work in dairy cooperatives, milk-processing units, poultry and livestock farms, government veterinary and animal-husbandry departments (as para-veterinary/field staff), and increasingly in private agri-dairy startups, or use the diploma as a stepping stone to further study. For a Class 12 science student in MP looking for an employable, hands-on alternative to a long degree route, ADDET is a focused entry point.

MPESB ADDET Online Form 2026 — Animal Husbandry & Dairy Diploma, Apply by 19 June — Analysis & Trends
One thing to weigh before you apply.
Know the "Self-Financed / Private" label before you commit. Both ADDET streams — Animal Husbandry Diploma (Self-Financed) and Dairy Technology Diploma (Private) — are largely fee-paying seats rather than fully state-funded ones, so factor the course fee and college type into your decision, not just the entrance rank. The upside is a genuinely employable skill set in a sector with steady demand (dairy cooperatives, livestock farms, government field roles). Check each participating college's fee structure and placement record during counselling, and confirm the exact seat matrix and fee in the official NDVSU/MPESB documents, since seat counts and college lists can change between the notice and counselling.
