Abstract

In the program that is featured in the poster, participants were members of the Nevada National Guard’s Agribusiness Development Team (ADT). The program consisted of four days of training to develop an overall understanding of agriculture in the U.S. and world. The classroom training encompassed topics related to agriculture and the modern world and global resources for food. The first three days were group sessions, specifically, classroom lectures, guest presentations, activities, and case studies. The fourth day involved the group breaking out into specialist teams, guided by faculty members in bio-physical science disciplines. The training was attended by 11 army personnel and was held on the campus of Cal Poly Pomona in the U.S. The focus of the poster is the evaluation of the training program that was done by participants.
