Dear Sir
I am working in the National Agricultural Development Institute as Assistant Director (Bachelor of Agricultural Science and MS in Genetics and Plant Breeding) in the area of Production, processing and maintaining quality of cereal seeds for the last 4 years. For your information, post harvest loss of agricultural products, lack of knowledge about preservation, storage and packaging for agricultural products is a very big issue in Bangladesh. But management of post harvest loses as post harvest technological research has just been started. As a result, we are lacking of new idea and advanced research in this area.
As I am working in this area and have keen interest to develop my carrier, for which I am seeking opportunity for study in any advanced country in this regards.
