Welcome to the Agricultural Education Program in Virginia. The Agricultural Education discipline contains five programs of study. These programs are designed to prepare students to enter various occupations in horticulture, agricultural business, natural resources management, agricultural machinery, and production agriculture.

Agricultural Education stresses the development of skills in all aspects of agricultural businesses and industries. Included in the studies are skills related to planning, management, safety, finances, and leadership.

An integral part of the agricultural education program is the FFA. The FFA provides all agricultural education students opportunities to apply knowledge and skills learned in the classroom. Leadership activities enhance the experiences of the students.
