Agriculture Introduction, Definition, Jobs, Courses, Suggestions, Tips, Career & Scope in Pakistan
Agriculture is the oldest profession of the world.Its a branch of Biology. Agriculture is all about cultivation of crops, farming of animals and producing of food, leather, meat. milk, wool and other related products. Pakistan is an agricultural country. More than 70 percent of our population live in villages and more than 55 percent of total population of our country is associated with agriculture field. Unfortunately majority of our farmers have no scientific knowledge about their field. They are still using old techniques in farming. Unfortunately our government has also failed to guide the farmers about latest research in agriculture. We suggest that government should start mobile classes in the field of agriculture. It would be a great initiative by Pakistan government. We can provide complete blue print of our idea on the demand of government.
