Agricultural Jobs
In times of ever-increasing needs of yields of crops and decreasing crop inputs such as water and fertiliser, agricultural biotechnology is playing a very significant role by helping in meeting the food needs of evolution.
Agricultural biotechnology incorporates biotechnology into crop production and protection. It involves using techniques to increase the size of crop yield, make crops resistant to disease caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses, and give them the ability to better withstand harsher elements.
Agricultural biotechnology has also contributed to bettering the built-in defence systems of plants and has opened up new avenues allowing us to work with nature by providing new bio pesticides. These new pesticides target crop pests but do not harm humans, animals, birds, fish and insects; they are also beneficial as they can control pests which have become resistant to the more conventional pesticides.
Agricultural biotechnologists can choose to specialise in molecular biology areas such as genomics, or related fields such as bioinformatics, public communication, regulatory affairs, and patent law.
Ideally, candidates are required to have expertise in the following key areas: executing molecular bio oriented R&D/ consultancy projects as well as the projects for setting up Biotech Labs for GM crops, Molecular Markers, Tissue Culture, and Plant Transformation; Protease Inhibitors and their use in modifying the physiology of the plant from the point of view of Biotic and Abiotic stress; functional genomics of important crop plants; and handling commercial aspects and managing business operations for generation business for the consultancy projects.

Top jobs are scattered on the websites of tens of thousands of companies, organizations and other job boards. This presents a difficult theoretical challenge that we help you overcome: By researching, structuring and logically ordering this tremendous variety of jobs in one place, we give you the ability to be resourceful and independently analyze your career options an efficient way. Other job sites are inefficient because they only show you jobs that employers are paying to post there. We actually go out and research jobs and do not accept any money from advertisers for job postings so that we can provide you with unbiased research about every job opening. We give you the resources to analyze your career options in a reserved, calm, independent and analytical manner. |

A few years ago, I spoke with a man (now retired) who had worked in a large corporation for forty years and in his last twenty years, he basically did nothing. He was paid very well and was more or less forgotten—doing very little of anything. He would show up at the office at 9:00 a.m. each day, try to look busy—do a task now and then—and then get in his car at 5:30 p.m. each evening and dr... |
