Both of the fields are good for career. You can go with the one in which you are more interested. Biotechnology has more scope than agriculture. You can get into research field by higher studies. You can pursue M.Sc. And then prepare for CSIR NET. It will allow the way to success and you can start your career in research field or lectureship.

Hello Vatsal
Each field has inculcated its own importance. But from my point of view first you should think what you want to do? In field your heart and mind both wish to excel and if you get this answer, Believe me no one can stop you to achieve the greater heights of success. We all have charm within us all just is our wish and decision. That will lead to a happy ending. Thank you.

Both courses are good but Agriculture is less Competitive field and comparatively opportunities are more considering that we are primarily an agricultural country. A very small percentage of our students opt for an agricultural major, only because they don't realize its potential.

A very small percentage of our students opt for an agricultural major, only because they don't realize its potential. One basic advantage that agriculture has over other sectors: other industries might need down-sizing, but feeding the world is a job that isn't ever going to face recession. Most students are well aware of the streams like engineering and medicine, and post-graduate degrees like the MBA. But you may have not given any thought to a B.Sc. In Agriculture. The demand for trained professionals in the field of agriculture is high. The course fee is negligible. It is four years undergraduate Bachelor degree programme which generally includes agriculture Science, use of modern scientific equipment and techniques in agriculture, land surveying, soil Science, water resource management, animal and poultry management, basics of biotechnology etc. The aim of the programme is to train students improve agriculture productivity, manage products and contribute to future development of the sector through research activities. There are plenty of government as well as private sector jobs available for B.Sc. Agriculture graduates. They can be appointed as Research Officer, Quality Assurance Officer, Agriculture Officer, Agriculture Loan Officer (in Banks), Production Manager, Operations Manager and Farm Manager with State agriculture departments. In the private sector agriculture Science graduates may find jobs as managers at plantations, as officers at fertilizer manufacturing firms, agriculture machinery industries, agricultural products marketing firms, food processing units etc. The average starting salary of these officers is generally between 5 to 6 Lacs per annum (Including Incentive). I am enlisting a few good college for B.Sc. The colleges are:
Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Coimbatore
Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya
Mewar University
Lovely Professional University Punjab
Anna University
Acharya Ngranga Agricultural University Hyderabad
Govind Ballabh Pant University Of Agriculture And Technology, Pantnagar
Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth Puneoknete
Mohanrao Kadam College Of Agriculture Sanglisardar
Bharati vidyapeeth university Pune.

If a person wants to work and perform researches in the field of agriculture, rural development, rural economy, environmental health, etc. , they should go for agriculture. If they want to perform researches on different organisms and utilize it to make outcomes for welfare of humans, then they should go for biotechnology.

B.Sc. Agricultural because it is big degree and this field have government job, agricultural in sole of India, it influences economy of India but present time biotechnology is not complete stabilized in India, if your aim is inventor/research then take it but if you not interested in R&D, you take agricultural.
