There are specialised postgraduate courses under the domain of agriculture that one can choose from and you can also discover plenty of jobs after B.Sc. Agriculture as well. Graduates beginning salaries after completing this course can range from INR 2.5 Lacs per annum to INR 3.5 Lacs per annum.

In the private sector, sales and marketing professionals are paid more since they are frequently awarded incentives in addition to basic compensation. If you want to work in research, you should look for work in the government sector because it offers a lot of opportunities to learn and advance while also paying well. Hope it helps.

Greetings, Siddharth. As a former student of Lovely Professional University, I would rank the university's School of Agriculture as one of Punjab's and India's best agriculture schools. It places a strong emphasis on agricultural and related studies. To undertake agricultural experiments, the institution has well-equipped laboratories, a library, lecture rooms, and an excellent farm site. I received my master's degree from LPU, and during my post-graduation years, I had a few acquaintances from the agriculture department. I used to tour fields and labs with them, and we would talk about placements, academics, and other topics. As a result, I have a general idea about this course. With extensive fieldwork and field visits, students learn about the latest advancements in agriculture, disease resistance, fertilizers, and pesticides, preparing them for the evergreen sector of agriculture. LPU places a strong emphasis on agricultural and related research. To undertake agricultural experiments, the institution has well-equipped laboratories, a library, lecture rooms, and an excellent farm site. By reading and debating difficult, real-life scenarios, the emphasis is on case studies and inter-personal oriented training to develop abilities in analytical thinking and reflective judgment. Leading agriculture corporations have offered top packages to LPU students. Dhanuka, HDFC Bank, Reliance Retail, Syngenta, Bio SEED Nestle, Smur Agro, VLCC, Virbac, Amazon, Sanra organics, and many other companies use School of Agriculture graduates. Kavita Faman, a final-year M.Sc. Agriculture (Agronomy) student at Lovely Professional University, has received a package of Rs 1 crore. Monsanto, a global leader in agrochemicals and now part of the Bayer Group's agricultural sciences division, has offered the package. All the best! I hope it helps.

Jobs can be got by students of B.Sc. Agriculture with firms of the private or public sectors. With public sector firms, one can get employed as Agricultural Research Scientist (ARS). But to get employed into this position, it will be needed for applicants to write an admission test. Job opportunities are also available for applicants as teachers. LPU is the only private university that has ICAR approval. LPU students got top packages from leading Agriculture companies. Students of School of Agriculture are placed in Dhanuka, HDFC Bank, Reliance retail, Syngenta, Bio SEED Nestle, Smur Agro, VLCC, Virbac, Amazon, Sanra organics and many more. 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.
