Agricultural Links For Secondary Students An Overview of Agriculture: From a historical point of view, agriculture has played a key role in the survival and demise of civilisations all over the world. The long-term success of a nation's agricultural enterprises ensured the survival and growth of the population. The need for efficient agricultural production is still relevant in today's modern society. This becomes apparent when you consider that the growing global population will demand more food and resources in the future. This is why education in the field of agriculture is essential for the youth of tomorrow so as they can make responsible decisions that will ultimately affect farming in the future.

I will encourage students to become self-motivated learners who work effectively, independently and co-operatively My role is to guide individual development of students through recognisable stages of development.
