Careers in Agriculture

Next Generation in Agriculture

Students who were largely unaware of the scope and range of skills used in the agricultural sector benefited from a pilot program developed by Productive Nutrition. By providing targeted, engaging and relevant information to students, they were able to understand the importance of agriculture in Australia. This led to increased enthusiasm in considering careers in the agricultural sector.

We hope to further this work in the future to ensure the agricultural industry attracts vibrant and talented young people and to ensure its ongoing sustainability and success.

Our thanks to the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry for project funding and to undergraduate students from Adelaide University and staff and students of Urrbrae Agricultural High School, Sacred Heart College, Woodville High School and Salisbury High School for participating in the project.
