Agriculture has always been one of the pillars that our nation’s economy depends upon. As this industry grows and expands agriculture is not just farming. There are so many different occupations that are involved with the industry that isn’t out in the fields that produce food and fiber. With such an evolving industry, education is key to making sure everyone is up to speed with the newest knowledge and technology. Agricultural education programs not only teach students how to become farmers but also train scientists, nutritionists, teachers, and more tomorrow. The combination of classroom instruction and off-class applied farming experiences lays the foundation for educated consumers and farmers.
