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
