Hi Lakshmi,
Before I shed any advice, it would be great if you could share details about you BSc and or projects you have done till date.
I always suggest people to go for a specialization rather than a generalized field. On those grounds, Agricultural Biotech would be my suggestion.
Your focus of PhD after agricultural Biotech could be Plant Biotechnology (Tissue culture/gene modifications/hybrid development/GM Crops etc).
or a safer route for keeping your prospects wider, would be to go for MSc in Biotechnology but ensuring that you pursue an internship/project in a Plant biotech (if that's your area of interest).
There are ample opportunities for agricultural biotechnologists in PAU, IARI like institutes.
Hope it helps
Best wishes
