Farmers and ranchers need to stay informed about the latest developments in precision agriculture, farm machinery, veterinary care, herbicides, and pesticides, and leverage this technology to increase crop yields and\/or the health and management of herds. Product developers and marketers. Farmers and ranchers need to be constantly monitoring market trends and climatic conditions and adjusting their product mix (or even introducing new products) to maximize profits and diversify revenue sources. They might switch to a new variety of apples or a new breed of chickens, or grow a specialty crop to supply a local restaurant. Or they might open their farm to the public for farm stays, \u201cU-pick\u201d weekends, or visits to a petting zoo. They might even operate an agricultural cooperative, with members of the community buying a \u201cshare\u201d of their produce. All of this requires knowledge about market positioning, sales, and promotions. Financially savvy. Farmers and ranchers typically borrow money to purchase seed, equipment, and animals\u2014and many farms are multi-million-dollar businesses! So, farmers and ranchers must be savvy about borrowing the right amount of money at the lowest possible financing charge, and they must manage cash flows to be able to make required payments. They must also make wise investing and pricing decisions. So, if your student is interested in pursuing a career as a farmer or a rancher, they need to understand both the\u00a0<em>science<\/em>\u00a0and the\u00a0<em>business<\/em>\u00a0of agriculture. They can take classes in agricultural science, agribusiness, and entrepreneurship. They can also participate in clubs such as 4-H and FFA (formerly known as Future Farmers of America). The Agribusiness pathway incorporates classes in agriscience, agribusiness, and entrepreneurship.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-k12-faq-content\"><div id=\"tabpanel-panel-AHJchFEi\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"tabpanel-tag-AHJchFEi\" class=\"tabs__panel k12_accordion\"><div><div class=\"accordion\"><div class=\"accordion-item\"><button class=\"accordion-header\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"#accordion-AHJchFEi-0\" type=\"button\"><h3>Is it useful to get a college degree if you want to be a farmer or a rancher?<\/h3><\/button><div id=\"accordion-AHJchFEi-0\" class=\"accordion-content\"><p class=\"\">While aspiring farmers or ranchers may find it useful to get a college degree in agricultural science or a related field, it is not absolutely necessary.

Taking agricultural science classes at a vo-tech high school or online is also important, as is participating in organizations like 4-H and FFA.
