FARMER

The project FARMER is a study into European best practices for recruiting and retaining students to the agricultural sector. We are facing major challenges regarding recruiting, environmental issues and climate change, social development and digitalization along with rapid technological development. These changes require new skills from the educators implementing a greening in the curriculum to support students on their vocational education and training path.
