Botany is the branch of biology which deals with the scientific study of plants. It is one of the preferred choices of study among the science students in India. Considering the current scenario, various factors like urbanisation, population explosion, pollution etc. are affecting the flora worldwide.

Therefore, apart from in-depth study of flora, a botanist is needed to explore all the possible ways to deal with issues related to agricultural, horticulture and environment. Thus, career in Botany can be highly rewarding for those, who are allured with the aesthetic beauty of nature and flora.
