Why not? You're not born knowing how to farm, and if a classroom can turn out better farmers, it makes sense. There's a lot more to crop growing/harvesting and animal husbandry than "throw seeds over there, and while you're waiting for plants to grow you can take these animals' eggs."
- thaumaturgy 15y agoI have read an occasional article on modern farming methods -- some for smaller farms, some on large-scale agriculture -- and no matter how much science and careful methodology I previously guess that they use, the articles surprise me anyway.
- puredemo 15y agoI've just never heard of a farming school. Agricultural programs and departments, yes. Farming school, no. It's a great idea in my opinion. Food prices are rising. Post-peak oil, local agriculture is going to become more and more important.
