Agriculture isn't just
what you think.
#CuriousByNature is a new social-first initiative from Farmers Weekly designed to address the agricultural skills gap by inspiring young people to explore the wide range of careers that contribute to feeding the world.
Think agriculture is all about farming? Think again.
From the science behind growing our food to the technology, research and people helping get it from field to plate, there’s much more to agriculture than you might expect.
Curious by Nature goes behind the scenes to meet the people putting their skills, interests and expertise to work across the industry. Each episode explores what they do, how they got there and why their role matters in feeding the world.
From soil scientists and plant breeders to food technologists, engineers and ecologists, discover the different careers, workplaces and routes into an industry that reaches far beyond the farm.
Whether you’re passionate about science, technology, the environment, food or something else entirely, there could be a place for you in agriculture.
