leads to a vast expanse of opportunities, be it in research, the
government sector, the hotel industry or the blooms business, writes Satish

field that holds ample scope. Whether you want to be full-time or
part-time horticulturist, whether you have your own piece of land or
not, you can take up this line and make a decent living out of it.

Horticulture
is fast emerging as a priority area--- both for the scientists as well
as the agrarian community. With a number of hydroelectric projects
coming up in Himachal Pradesh, the need for scientific management of
their catchment treatment plans, necessitating large-scale plantations,
has also assumed significance. To help offset the environmental
degradation caused by these projects, there is a growing demand for
employing professionals with a forestry background.

abroad, though many more just left without informing the authorities,

AS
the pace of life moves faster and faster, one has to run, just to stay
in the same place. This fast pace has changed the way we work and the
kind of jobs that are increasingly being created. Ten years ago, 80 per
cent of the jobs were in the area of manufacturing, while today the
majority are in the services sector.
