SUMMARY:The Future is Food: Surprising career opportunities in agriculture and agri-food
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will explore how all these interests (and more) can lead you to a rewarding career in the agriculture and agri-food sector. When someone says “there are lots of career opportunities in agriculture”\, most people immediately picture the stereotypical farmer\, maybe milking cows or harvesting wheat. While primary production is indeed an essential part of agriculture\, and in need of talent\, there are also countless opportunities both up- and down-stream of the farm gate. Maybe you are interested in satellite image analysis\, mechanical engineering\, computer programming\, molecular genetics\, fermentation\, veterinary medicine\, or developing the next great protein bar. Maybe you are fascinated by storytelling\, or sustainability\, or water security\, or global trade markets.  The world needs this sector now more than ever – learn how you can be part of the future of food! \n  \nClick here to register!
