WHERE CAN THIS COURSE LEAD YOU?
Graduates from this course have a foundation for growing just about any crop they choose to grow.
Even if you don't study the specific crops; the principles you learn and the scientific and commercial understanding which you develop, will lay a foundation that allows you to adapt to any type of job or any type of crop you find yourself confronted with. For a farm to remain sustainable, certain minimum productivity levels must be maintained, using preferred plant species on an ongoing basis. These plants may be pasture species, fodder crops, grain, vegetables, fruit or other harvested plants.
This course lays a very solid foundation for business or employment in any type of Horticultural Crop Production; whether on or off farm, growing or supporting growers. This course is very much focussed on giving you knowledge and skills that are in demand, and laying a foundation for you to develop a very solid career as a professional in the cropping industry.
