Education's Impact On Agriculture and The Economy
Teaching Guide
Topic: Due to government regulation, would an emphasis on agricultural education improve or impact the economy?
Hosts: Samantha Calvetti, Allison Wells
Guest: Clayton Bundy, Randy Lockbridge, Kat Smith
Description: One large issue that faces the United States agriculture industry is the need for more education. This lack of agricultural education has led to social and economic problems within agriculture and the general public. The government places many rules and regulations on the industry. Unfortunately, many individuals making those decisions aren't adequately educated in the agriculture industry. Many government officials and most of the general public lack any knowledge of how the agriculture industry functions. Government regulation could also help increase agricultural education by making ag-ed a mandatory class. This would set up a foundation of knowledge about agriculture, which could help combat some of the issues the agriculture industry faces.
