This degree gives students practical, production-oriented specialist skills to understand the implications of land use and management change on agricultural productivity. The degree is ideal for students who are more interested in developing paddock-ready skills and knowledge for the management of agricultural landscapes than the scientific, agricultural systems focus of UNE’s Bachelor of Rural Science. The latest technology underpins all UNE agriculture courses. Specialise in , animal production or plant production, or take the general mixed farming stream. Our range of specialised minors is designed to give students options to broaden their scope and develop industry-ready skills. For external study, contact the UNE Future Students Team.
