About Agriculture

Agriculture is a big industry, and most of the careers are related to science and/or business. The agriculture industry plays a major role in the economy of most countries in the world. Hence, if you have the passion, skills, and knowledge, there are several opportunities. The study of agriculture is called agricultural science or agricultural technology. The field combines the natural and social sciences, along with economics, engineering, and management (particularly natural resources management and business management) of biological systems to practice. Agricultural Science uses the fundamentals of biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and statistics to solve the problems of the agriculture-food industry. With a degree in agricultural science, you can have careers in the agricultural sector. Major domains within the agricultural sector include agribusiness, public and private agencies, government and policy-making agencies, and private consulting companies.
