    Students also asked

    Q:   What is the career scope of BSc Agriculture?
    A: 

    Agriculture graduates can find themselves a job in research firms, government agencies, agri-business firms, the farming sector, and can also pursue a master's in the relevant field to expand their careers into the academic side. A BSc in agriculture can also act as a foundation for government exams like UPSC. In a country as populous as India, the vegetative practices and the agriculture sector as a whole are only expected to grow from this point on. 

    Q:   Can I become an Agricultural Entrepreneur after B.Sc Agriculture?
    A: 

    Of course, Agriculture and allied sector not only remained insulated from economic slowdown or pandemic but has registered better growth than other sectors. Other industries have faced the problem of downsizing during a pandemic but the agriculture sector remained aloof from lay-offs, pay cuts and forced resignations. There will never be a downturn or slow down when it comes to feeding the world population.
