New section on green schools
[The Green School Alliance (GSA) founded in 2007 has been working globally to expand it's network of peer-to-peer Green Schools which focus on teaching sustainability and environmental education. It is a non-profit organization with free and voluntary membership. It has accrued 8,087 member schools from 48 states and 91 countries. ]

[Original] Various avenues are available for agricultural education. It is part of the curriculum of many primary and secondary schools along with tertiary institutions such as colleges, universities and vocational and technical schools. Agricultural education resources and hands-on learning can also be provided by youth organizations, farm apprenticeships and internships, agricultural workshops and training sessions, agricultural shows and fairs, agricultural research institutions, government ministries and agencies and non-profit organizations. Online and distance learning programs have become increasingly relevant in recent years for people lacking access to traditional settings and requiring flexible learning opportunities. In college or university programs, agricultural education is primarily undertaken to prepare students for employment (and potentially a career) in the farming and agricultural sector.

[Original] School students typically learn about general principles of land management (land utilization and land conservation for sustainable agriculture), principles of agricultural economics (supply and demand, pricing, market analysis and other financial aspects), soil science (soil formation, types, composition, texture, temperature, fertility, erosion and conservation, drainage and irrigation, water cycle), principles of plant growth (plant physiology and how plants transport materials, reproduce and germinate), crop production (land preparation, cultivation of cash crops, crop selection, planting and maintenance), crop protection (weed, pest and disease control, integrated pest management and the responsible use of farm chemicals), livestock anatomy and physiology (digestion in ruminants and non-ruminants, sexual reproduction in mammals), livestock production (livestock housing, nutrition and health management for the well-being of animals and optimal production), pasture management (extensive and intensive pasture management to maintain healthy grazing areas), livestock and crop breeding (principles of genetics and breeding, including monohybrid inheritance, selective breeding in animals and plants), essential farm structures and tools (fencing, farm buildings, water supplies, tools and machinery).
