Agriculture Scope

Agriculture: It is the main branch so after graduation your options for specialisation is wide. You can become a scientist, professor, agricultural field officer or move to management side too. There are many agri business management courses. Agriculture has a wide scope. Forestry: It is a sub-branch of agriculture. If you are into adventure then this course is for you. If you are genuinely interested in forest and trekking you can go for it. And you can even try for Indian Forest Service which is much easier than IAS. You can also pursue forest management course at IIFM-Bhopal. If you're in a state which gives 100 percent forest ranger seats to forestry graduates (most of the state department don't really take graduates these days, that's a different story) then you can consider forestry. If you want to go abroad, forestry has good scope there. Agriculture or forestry, I suggest you first decide that what you want to do after graduation and then choose your field.
