10 Situation of present agricultural education at most universities in Japan Education at the university through research, basic science or practical science Agriculture: Practical science led to the development of agricultural technologies by its nature and expected to solve the practical farming and livestock problems Cf. a. practice of farming and science of farming (Longman Advance American Dictionary, 2000) b. the science or art of cultivating the soil, producing crops, and raising livestock and in varying degrees the preparation of these products for man s use and their disposal (as by marketing) (Webster s New Collegiate Dictionary, 1979) However, Agriculture has extended from practical science to rather basic science and nowadays more and more researchers of universities and agricultural research institutions particularly in Japan are tended to engage in basic science research As a results, Students may lose interests or can not intrigue interests in agricultural studies.
11 How can students have interests in Agriculture? From basic science to practical science of agriculture to meet urgent needs in solving the problems in improvement of agricultural production Exposing young people to current and real situations to understand various problems to be solved urgently in farming and agriculture through visiting villages and interviewing farmers Role of teachers/researchers engaging in higher education to guide and lead young students to field study New approaches: 1. Overseas study tour of undergraduate students 2. Education through the overseas research collaboration between Japan and developing countries: (SATREPS)
12 Joint Training Program for Undergraduate Students Royal University of Agriculture (RUA), Cambodia Kasetsart University (KU), Thailand Nagoya University (NU), Japan 12
13 The Objectives of Joint Training Program Agriculture is the most important primary industry and should be placed in the front line of the development for food security. Target Undergraduate students (mainly third-year students) who are studying agriculture from Royal University of Agriculture (RUA), Kasetsart University (KU) and Nagoya University (NU) Purpose To understand the agriculture in different countries (Cambodia, Thailand and Japan) having different culture and nature To observe the reality of agriculture and its related industries with a scientific eye 13
14 The Objectives of Joint Training Program Characteristics Joint training program in Cambodia, Thailand and Japan. The NU third-year students form groups with same numbers of RUA or KU counterpart students to witness the reality of agricultural production in the rural area. They have several projects on rice production, horticulture, animal production, food processing and water management etc. Each group has wrap-up presentations on their own projects. Students earn credit for the program in each university (RUA, KU, NU). 14
