Given today's always-on information economy, few professional tracks are as consistently overlooked as agriculture. Decades of mechanization, industrialization, and consolidation have reduced the number of people employed in farming from 16 percent of the total U.S. workforce in 1945 to less than 2 percent in 2000. Those that do opt to pursue agriculture in higher education historically are more apt to attend land grant universities than community colleges. But, as the U.S. farming and agricultural industry undergoes a technological and cultural revolution of its own, community colleges--with advanced programs in horticulture, turf management, landscaping, and other areas--stand to play an increasingly vital role in training the next crop of agricultural professionals. What can community colleges do to meet the growing potential of opportunities in diversified and sustainable food systems clusters? The author offers some ideas for community colleges to consider.
