This bulletin is designed to help plan and conduct instructional programs for young farmers. It offers suggestions for developing close cooperation among school administrators, teachers, and farm and civic leaders of the community. Information is included in the publication to show the need and importance of a program of instruction for young farmers. The teacher of vocational agriculture is the key person in the success of the local young farmer program, but his success depends to a large degree upon support and cooperation from the school authorities. Providing educational opportunities for young farmers is an important part of the local program for vocational education in agriculture. Young farmers need agricultural instruction. They are in a position to make immediate use of the knowledge and skills which this instruction affords them. Secondary schools which have departments of vocational agriculture can find challenging opportunities to serve these young men by offering programs of instruction for them in the local community.

The preparation of school-based agriculture teachers has been a part of public education for over 100 years. However, there is a lack of texts available that address the components of teacher education in agriculture including teacher preparation and related activities. Further study that goes beyond concepts to include practice and applications is required in order to further develop educators in this sector. Preparing Agriculture and Agriscience Educators for the Classroom provides an up-to-date consideration of the best practices for developing and enhancing a complete teacher preparation program and highlights and showcases concepts and applications. It is a mainstay for teacher education and teacher preparation in agriculture and is applicable anywhere in the world where teaching agriculture exists. Covering a range of topics such as field experiences and student learning, this reference work is ideal for researchers, scholars, practitioners, academicians, administrators, instructors, and students.

This book presents efforts to chart the comprehensive changes needed to meet the challenges of undergraduate professional education in agriculture. The United States needs to invest in the futureâ€"in human capital and the scientific knowledge baseâ€"to revitalize one of its leading industries, the agricultural, food, and environmental system. That objective can be met by educating all students about agriculture as well as by educating others specifically for careers in agriculture. Agriculture and the Undergraduate includes perspectives on rewarding excellence in teaching and formulating curricula to reflect cultural diversity, the environment, ecology, agribusiness and business, humanities and the social sciences, and the economic and global contexts of agriculture.
