Careers in agricultural
economics
Graduates from agricultural and applied
economics departments find jobs in many
sectors of the economy: agricultural
management, agribusiness, agricultural
marketing, education, financial sector,
government, natural resource and
environmental management, real estate,
and public relations. Careers in agricultural
economics require at least a bachelor's
degree, and research careers in the field
require graduate-level training;[23] see
Masters in Agricultural Economics. A 2011
study by the Georgetown Center on
Education and the Workforce rated
agricultural economics tied for 8th out of
171 fields in terms of employability.[24][25]
