Punjab Agriculture Graduates Internship Scheme
The Punjab government has announced a new internship initiative as part of its agricultural reform agenda to put Punjab on the path of development, which aims to engage young agriculture graduates of Punjab in the sector. The scheme, branded under the slogan Maryam Nawaz’s dream: Punjab is changing, will provide a monthly stipend of Rs 70,000 to selected interns.
Objective of the scheme
The program aims to expand and strengthen the agriculture sector in the province, as well as create meaningful opportunities for fresh graduates.
By placing young, qualified individuals in district-level agriculture offices, the initiative hopes to bridge the gap between academic training and practical fieldwork, while supporting farmers with cutting-edge knowledge and technical support.

- A B.Sc. (Hons.) degree in Agriculture is a must.
- Applicants should not be more than 27 years of age as on the date of final submission.
