ABOUT THE FEED AND FERTILIZER
MARKETING TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM
The Feed & Fertilizer Marketing Program is a two-year input/supply business management program. Upon successful completion of the coursework, students earn an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Feed and Fertilizer Marketing.
Our marketing course structure has been carefully developed and redeveloped over the years by a dedicated advisory committee. This committee is made up of professionals within the input/supply sectors who meet periodically to provide input and give guidance about the ever-changing ag industry.
The program content is designed to offer the student an extensive knowledge base about how to service production agriculture efficiently. We believe we are able to introduce each individual to a variety of simple and complex aspects of the agricultural business. Equipped with this information, the individual can then begin to develop potential career choices.
Human relations, sales, and business management are the highlights of the Feed and Fertilizer Marketing Program. As with most vocational programs, we offer the student work experience courses to gain the skills necessary to become a highly trained professional. Unlike the other vocational programs, we include four work periods to better diversify a student's education. The program is four 16-week semesters and one 6-week summer session in length.
