Fellow nairalander, sir and ma.please I need your opinion and advice on Agricultural economics as a course what is the employment opportunities in Nigeria and where can the person work after school or should I change the course

agricultural economics sounds like something lucrative but probably not here in Nigeria where we dont have alot of large scale farmers and the agricultural industry isn't taken seriously.

but it might be "lucrative" if the agricultural industry is rehabilitated under buhari's administration.

i hope you can get advice from people in the agric industry .

try asking the agric section about what it entails if you dont get answers here or visit the website of a school offering the course for more info

thanks alot

I NEED ADVICE
I studied Agricultural economic management and extension in Ebonyi State University.
I feel there is no hope again already I dreamt to read mechanical engineering but I didn't credit my physics in my waec and based on circumstances I choose to read anything provided it is a course in the University, and now am not comfortable as a graduate
Because sometimes when I apply for job there will tell me that there don't need my discipline.
Therefore am confuse.
