Fellow nairalanders I just got admitted to study agricultural economics and personally with my vague understanding of the course I'm very happy with it,mainly because of how it combines a course of great business potential with another course that focuses on business management to creat a professional course....

But I still want to know a few things preferably from the mouths of thoes who have studied or are studying this course.

*Is the course a practical oriented course like the conventional agric course or mainly a theory course like economics.

* Can the course be classified as a science or a social science.

* And due to its relationship to Economics I would like to know if it is a mathematical course because I'm a maths fanatic and I don't want a course that won't allow me do my maths.

* is it the most lucrative agric course.


Pls nairalanders I sincerely beg for ur replies and opinion and my university of study is Uniben

I suspect it is a narrowed down version of economics that focuses on Agricultural economics or the economic dynamics of agriculture alone as against pure economics.

Nobody said you should say what you suspected it was

And who I said I shouldnt?
Maybe OP should go the department and ask for their main course outline for program duration.

Agricultural economics is an applied field of economics concerned with the application of economic theory in optimizing the production and distribution of food and fiber.
