Agriculture has a vast scope in India and a lot of research can be done in order to make the facilities provided to farmers and producers, better. But our nation lacks good professors/faculties in that course. Very few companies/statups are creating jobs for such people. So, people prefer engineering over agriculture. A lot of job opportunities exist currently, if you do good in college.
If you want to study agriculture only then go for B. Tech in agriculture engineering. If you are interested in other engineering streams then you can also go for other streams in engineering like cse, ece, ee, it, mechanical, civil, biotechnology, chemical engineering, aerospace engineering etc
Hello Sanket
Pursuing Bsc in agriculture you can prepare for government agriculture officer posts. Therefore if you are not much interested in maths and you want to join public sector then BSc in agriculture is good option whereas if you really are interested in mathematics ,physics and chemistry you can surely opt for engineering and can work in both public as we’ll as private sector.

B. Tech (Bachelors of Technology): Bachelor of Technology degree is a professional engineering undergraduate degree awarded after completion of four years of academic study in engineering field. It is offered in many disciplines. The Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) is the 4 year full-time undergraduate courseleading to the engineering degree. Engineering is the passion, aim, pride, dream and joy, it totally depends on you in which field you want to make your career. Engineering is an activity other than purely manual and physical work which brings about the utilization of the materials and laws of nature for the good of humanity. B.
