AgriBusiness Overview

As the world encounters an exponentially increasing human population, agriculture faces a new paradigm of feeding the world while preserving biological diversity and preserving our delicate ecosystems. The Agribusiness Curriculum investigates areas of industrial, commercial, sustainable, natural, and organic methods through a series of courses designed to instruct students in modern advanced technological practices to prepare them for the past and future challenges in the fertilizer, seed, feed, chemical, equipment and food industries.

Thus, students are prepared for the current and future challenges in fertilizer, seed, feed, chemical, equipment and food industries in areas of mid-management and sale position.

Overall employment of agricultural workers is projected to decline 3 percent from 2024 to 2034.

Despite declining employment, about 116,200 openings for agricultural workers are projected each year, on average, over the decade. All of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to other occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.
