摘要

Less than 3 percent of the United States population lives on what is today defined as "farms." The question has been raised, "Why spend time on agricultural education (ag ed) in schools when such a small population would use it?" The answer should be as simple as, "Do you eat food and care about how it is produced?" As witnessed in the press, an increasing number of people are interested in the food they eat. Unfortunately, their judgment of food is based on very little knowledge of the production,handling, processing and commercialization of this food. Returning to the question "Is agricultural education necessary?", the answer should be "It's a requirement." No one academic discipline has and will continue to experience the kinds of pressure toexplain to the public the practical relationships among food, consumers and biotechnology like the educators involved in agriculture. Yet many agriculture educators find themselves ill-equipped to communicate the science and technical knowledge needed to meet these present and future challenges in agriculture. The biotechnology program at Iowa State University (ISU) since 1994 has concentrated on helping classroom ag ed teachers meet these challenges.
