THE IMPORTANCE OF AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION

Abstract

What is the importance of agricultural education? Agricultural education is necessary to give students agricultural literacy. This happens by knowing and understanding where our food, clothing, and goods come from. Not only are we gaining agricultural literacy, but also introducing students into the industry of agriculture to give them a better understanding of career opportunities available to them. I reviewed academic sources as I prepared for this paper to give myself a better understanding and gain my own agricultural literacy. What I found is that every aspect of our lives is impacted by agriculture in some way. Agriculture is about more than just farming.
