Today's agriculture
requires a large investment of capital, equipment, and other
production supplies. In order to be successful, an individual must
be trained in the areas of food processing, distribution, and
marketing functions. As farms and ranches are utilizing more
educational information and advisory services, farm-related
companies and government agencies are looking for an increasing
number of people who have both agricultural and business training.Agriculture
