BS in Agribusiness: Horticulture

Like most of our world, agriculture has changed dramatically and is infinitely more complex than most people can imagine. Today, most agriculture is seen as a technology-based industry that includes production, agriscience, and agribusiness. Agriculture graduates are in demand to produce food and package and transport it, market it, regulate its production, and finance it. Agriculture graduates play key roles in planning for the efficient and safe future use of our water supply, land, and other natural resources. The horticulture option provides students with experience in ornamentals, fruits and vegetable production, turf and golf maintenance, landscape design and maintenance, viticulture, nursery production, greenhouse management, and other areas.
