Agriculture with Foundation Year

About this course

Agriculture is the practice and science of growing crops and raising livestock to feed and support human populations, and it is a field undergoing rapid transformation as climate change, population growth, resource constraints and changing consumer expectations demand new approaches to food production. The discipline draws on plant and animal science, soil science, agronomy, environmental science, economics and business management to address questions about how food can be produced efficiently, sustainably and equitably across the full range of farming systems, from intensive arable and livestock operations to organic, regenerative and small-scale farming. At the University of Reading, one of the UK's leading agricultural universities, this four-year, full-time programme includes a foundation year that provides additional preparation for students before progressing to the full degree.
