Reflecting the latest developments in farm machinery and practices, Agriculture at Sparsholt continues to be a growing choice for many who are eager to become the next generation of skilled technical staff and managers.
Our students learn all about modern farming techniques and the technology shaping work on the land, alongside hands-on experience on our working commercial farm and in our workshops making repairs to machinery and tractors. Getting involved in events from a charity ploughathon to visits to shows, industry events and machinery dealers, our students gain high levels of knowledge and practical skills in all aspects of the industry.
Some of our students’ university destinations include:
“Working in agriculture can be a fulfilling career for many people, with a wide range of different jobs on offer. Modern agriculture is a diverse sector, offering opportunities which provide such an important contribution to everyday life. I take pride in allowing all our learners an opportunity to grow, be challenged and set goals to help them to secure a future in farming, food and sustainability.”
"Sparsholt has given me the ability to further develop my agricultural knowledge and created a strong pathway for me to embed and develop my practical skills within all areas of the industry; particularly around livestock."
