Full course description

Broad and all-encompassing, the field of agriculture is the largest industry in the United States.  From food and clothing to cell phones and trucks, all are either agricultural in nature or are derived from or related to agriculture in some way.  In the Acellus Agriculture II course, students begin with an introduction to plant systems, one of the six career sectors of agriculture.  They learn about plant types, parts, classification, reproduction, and processes, as well as the effect of the environment on plants.  They delve into a study of soil, crop production, trees, pests, and weeds.  They explore aspects of the FFA program and how to succeed at getting a job.  They also study recordkeeping and welding. The Acellus Agriculture II course is taught by Acellus Instructor Callie Dobbins.  Prerequisite:  Agriculture I
