Abstract:
A course titled Topics in International Agriculture was developed with the intent to teach about agricultural production on a global scale. Additionally, the course was intended to illustrate and discuss agriculture's connections with society in terms of sociology, history, economics, government, culture and other academic disciplines. The course included a trip to Italy and England to allow students to experience both agriculture and culture in these countries. Course goals, development, content, and instruction are presented and discussed along with considerations for future offerings of this course. It is hoped that this will both inform and aid colleagues as in the development of similar courses.
