THERE have long been discussions about the best way to get people involved in agriculture, with one central theme suggesting that early exposure to the subject - such as at school - can make a difference.
There have been a number of school programs focused on bringing agriculture to students and introducing the range of career options, such as the dairy industry's Cows Create Careers.
A new program from Primary Producers SA, Educating Kids About Agriculture, aims to provide teachers with a range of resources to make it easier to share agriculture lessons.
With National Ag Day, the National Farmers Federation are also sharing webinars with people from a range of agricultural careers, aimed at high school students.
Are we getting there or do we still need to do more to teach agriculture?
