Agricultural graduates' mindsets have shifted due to the Hon'ble Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modis’ assertion that youths should not be job seekers but employment providers. With the increasing number of agricultural colleges in Odisha, agricultural graduates are also rising. An examination of Odisha agriculture graduates' socio-personal and socioeconomic features was conducted in this context. The project falls under the "ex post facto" survey research category. A total of 80 people were interviewed from three distinct colleges at three separate institutions. This study included a pilot study, preparation and pre-testing of interview schedules, farmer interviews and data processing. Frequency calculation and percentage were utilized as statistical methods in the investigation. After careful consideration, it was concluded that the respondents' fathers were more educated than their moms. Most agriculture graduates in Odisha displayed negative to moderately positive attitudes towards agrientrepreneurship, particularly regarding their readiness to engage in agribusiness. The most common occupation of the respondents' parents was government service, followed by business. As a result, family members and professors should encourage children interested in agriculture to pursue agripreneurship. During undergraduate studies, students should receive skillbased training and participate in exposure visits to agri-allied sectors, with financial support offered to those who show interest.
