Hello! My name is Andrea De Roo and I am a third year
student in the College of Agriculture and Bioresources at the University of
Saskatchewan. I am currently majoring in
agronomy and minoring in biotechnology, and I hope to do graduate studies after
my degree.
Outside of school I enjoy
playing a variety of sports, training horses, and hanging out with my friends
and family. I grew up on a mixed cattle
and grain farm near Moosomin, Saskatchewan which is what first sparked my
interest in agriculture.
My favorite
part about studying agriculture is being able to apply my knowledge in my
summer job. I have worked for companies
like Cargill and Monsanto, and loved helping farmers and working with those who
are also passionate about the industry. The best thing about agriculture and
working in the industry is job security! Everyone in the world needs to eat to
survive and it’s scary to think the world population is continually growing and
the world cannot keep up to the demand for food. As a grad from the College of
Agriculture and Bioresources, you will never be without a job! In fact there
are on average 40 job offers for every one undergraduate student when they
graduate and the seed industry alone needs 600 grads every year.
The University
of Saskatchewan is a great choice to study agriculture. You can study anything
from ag-business and politics to animal, plant or food science. Another great
option is the renewable resource management program that is essential for the
protection of arable land and keeping the land in production. There are so many areas to study in
agriculture and the job possibilities are endless!
Please note - the
facts I have mentioned are from presentations I’ve heard over the past year
working for the Canadian Seed Trade Association.
Thanks for post. Job secuitry is very important really.

Everyone on the globe needs to eat to endure and it’s terrifying to think the globe inhabitants is constantly increasing and the globe cannot keep up to the requirement for meals. The best factor about farming and operating in the market is job security!
