Abstract

Survey data were used to identify determinants of starting and current salaries of agribusiness economics graduates from Southern Illinois University Carbondale.Labor markets appear to be similar for graduates from land grant and non-land-grant universities. Respondents with the highest earnings were "native" men with advanced degree(s) who moved out of the southern Illinois region and were working in the private sector.
