College of Agriculture

The College of Agriculture is split into two respective specialty factions: crop science and animal science. Students receive basic knowledge of both fields to discover which one best suits them.

​

Animal science demands a greater amount of hands on effort and to a more intensive degree. Students  learn how to administer vaccinations, feed animals properly, raise livestock or poultry from juvenile to adult, and much more. Students studying crop science, on the other hand, work with fertilizer implementation, experiment with a wide variety of plant life, integrate pest management effectively, and study the variables of weather on a harvest. Fermenting certain crops has been another process that students have experimented with. One neat opportunity lies in the Oyster Mushroom Laboratory, a place where students can grow oyster mushrooms for sale . One student even managed to pay for his entire tuition at FU by learning how to grow them properly and efficiently at home.

​

In addition to its two programs, the College of Agriculture has several internship and research opportunities to prepare students for farm management. Becoming a farmer is both a noble and fulfilling profession that offers an enriching life by working hand in hand with nature.
