Agricultural Economics Topics and Concepts in Canadian Universities
What do Agricultural Economics Students Learn?
Students in agricultural economics programs take courses in basic economic theory, applied agricultural economics, statistics, accounting, international development, marketing, management, and computer applications. They combine this business-oriented work with studies in the physical, agricultural and biological sciences, including soil science, horticulture, ecology, renewable resources, and plant and animal science. Depending on their area of specialization, students often pursue cooperative studies in the workplace or abroad, either on farms or in agribusiness concerns. Agricultural economists strive to find solutions to local and international problems of food supply and demand, while at the same time committing to a sustainable and environmentally responsible industry.
