From AgroWiki

Welcome to the AgrowWiki- AgrowKnowledge's Wiki for curriculum and materials. Here you will find information on the status of Agriculture education in 2 year community and technical colleges from around the country. AgrowKnowledge, the National Center for Agriscience and Technology Education is a national partnership of community colleges. Our work is enhanced by the involvement of business and industry, leading universities in agriculture education, secondary schools, and professional associations.

AgrowKnowledge understands the increasing demand for high-tech careers in areas such as precision agriculture, biotechnology, alternative energy production, natural resource management, and nutritious food production for a hungry world. As a result, AgrowKnowledge partners prepare students for the workforce, ready to use emerging technology in agriculture, food, and natural resources.

Use the links at right to explore the educational materials and emerging technologies that AgroWiki is focusing on.

Interested in learning about the Career Clusters in Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources? We also have a selection of Exercises, Worksheets and Activities.
