- Merit list — Educational qualification — Weighting of academic marks: 10th percentage × 0.5 (maximum 50); 12th percentage × 0.1 (maximum 10); Graduate percentage × 0.1 (maximum 10). (Conversion formula to be used if CGPA/grade.) — Maximum 70
- Merit list — Training — Training: Minimum one 5‑day training mandatory (first five days = 15 marks). Additional training days awarded 1 mark per extra day (up to an additional 15 marks). — Maximum 30
Physical / Skill / Computer Test
- Cycling capability: Qualifying criterion — candidate must be able to ride a bicycle; the selection committee may conduct a practical test after preliminary merit list. No merit marks; failure may cause disqualification.

Preparation Strategy
- Ensure certified proof of minimum 5‑day training from the Agriculture/Horticulture Directorate and collect any additional training certificates (each extra training day gives marks).
- Confirm and, if needed, obtain clear marksheets for 10th/12th/graduate to maximise weighted percentage (10th has highest weight).
- Keep valid local resident and local language certificates ready (language is qualifying) and self‑attested photocopies of all documents as listed in the notification.
- Be prepared for a practical check of cycling and tree‑climbing ability (these are qualifying — practise and bring any related proof if available).
