I think, I can answer for this question, because I have completed M.Sc Agriculture degree from GKVK, Bangalore. B.Sc (hons) agriculture, B.Sc. Agriculture is a four year degree with eight semester and more than 60 different courses. After medical and veterinary Science, it has lot of scope because: It has limited seats (only government colleges), each college have less than 150 seats. Some have even less than 70. So, output is also low, hence competition for job is less unlike engineering. So, there many career opportunities like agriculture scientist (central government), quarantine, NSC, Private input sectors like seeds, fertilizer, weedicide, pesticides There are lot of government job like ADA- assistant director of agriculture (group-one) - salary is up to INR 70k, AO, AAO (group-b) - salary up to INR 50k. Banking sector- every year, bank recruits 2k to 3k agriculture specialist officer- exclusive for agriculture graduate. Assistant professor-UGC scale. There are plenty of jobs, but I can't mention them all. NABARD will support you to open your own agriculture enterprise by giving 35% to 45% subsidy. It's a professional degree (Hons), where you are going to study in specific courses. This degree is very cheap and you can complete this course with the fee of INR 1lkahs. And, also there are lot of employment opportunities. As of my knowledge, 99% Agriculture graduate are employed or have own enterprise.
