Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is b) Kerala Agricultural University.

The university offers undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programs in agriculture, allied sciences, and management. It has 15 constituent colleges and 10 research stations.
KAU is a major player in agricultural research and development in Kerala. It has a strong research focus on crops, livestock, fisheries, and forestry. The university has also been successful in transferring its research findings to farmers and other stakeholders.
