Hello

Since you have taken Arts in 12th pursuing a PhD in Agriculture directly is not possible. To do a PhD in Agriculture, you need a relevant academic background in science.

Here’s what you can do:

1. Check Eligibility for BSc in Agriculture :

Most universities require Science (PCB/PCM) in 12th for BSc Agriculture.

However, some private universities may offer diploma courses in agriculture that you can pursue and later transition to a BSc.

2. Alternative Route via Arts Background:

If you are interested in agricultural research from an Arts perspective , you can pursue a BA in Rural Development , Agricultural Economics or Environmental Studies.

After that, you can do an MA in related fields and then a PhD in Agricultural Economics, Rural Studies or Agri-Policy.

If you are open to interdisciplinary research (like policy-making in agriculture, rural sociology or environmental law) you can still work in the agriculture field with an Arts background.

hope this helps you .
