Ag. (Genetics & Plant Breeding) 4) M.Sc. Ag. (Entomology) 5) M.Sc. Ag. (Plant Pathology) 6) M.Sc. Ag. Horticulture (Vegetable Science) 7) M.Sc. Ag. Horticulture (Fruit Science) 8) M.Sc. Ag. Horticulture (Floriculture and Landscaping) The package really depends on what he can show to the recruiters that, how much he is worth or deserved. There were some students who cracked the placement and got offered 1 crore LPA, while many failed to do so. On an average the Agriculture students of LPU is offered and placed in the starting package of 5.5 TO 6 LPA (Fixed salary) while there may be cases of students getting less than that or more than that. Like I said, LPU will provide you the platform and the opportunity, but it is really you who have to go and perform on the platform being provided.
