With two billionmore people to feed by 2050*, the agricultural industry is facingmajor changes. At Hartpury, an agriculture degree is about somuchmore than farming. It's aboutworkingwith people to create behaviour change, applying agri-tech data to increase yield andwelfare, and translating scientific research and business theory into real solutions that address industry challenges. You don’t need an agricultural background, you just need the passion and drive tomake a difference to our planet, people, and animals. Our students benefit from a curriculum that’s informed by industry, with business management embedded throughout. As part of our 10 year vision to create a Digital Innovation Farm and become a leader in smart farming technology, our students learn from, and contribute to, the latest scientific research in our Agri-Tech Centre and advanced dairy parlour. From exploring sustainable food systems to connecting consumers with the meals on their plate, they’re working on scientific projects that will help to create a greener future that protects our planet and enables people and animals to thrive. As part of your degree, you’ll spend time in industry, working on a range of projects and applying theory to practice. An optional placement year or semester studying in the USA or Canada could strengthen your professional skills and international perspective. Add that to the expertise you’ll develop on our award-winning 380-hectare commercial farm, and you’ll be well prepared to drive the agri-tech sector forwards into a productive and sustainable future.**
