The structure of Wisconsin agriculture is changing in ways that affect the traditional family farm. Urban encroachments, changing consumer demands and a global marketplace are altering the face of farming. To adapt to these changes, agriculture and natural resources education emphasizes:- Protecting natural resources, water, land and air while striving for profitability in agriculture and meeting the food and fiber needs of the world.
- Providing people with safe and adequate food and contributing to the economic
well-being of the community. - Helping property owners create and maintain their personal environments with education for homeowners who enjoy gardening and landscaping by growing fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals.
