Effective agricultural marketing requires the ability to analyze complex market data, use that data to identify changes in demand, and develop persuasive arguments for multiple audiences in order to increase demand.

Fundamentally, marketing revolves around understanding and communicating with people. In agricultural marketing, this includes people from a number of different groups, including farmers, consumers, and legislators all with wildly different goals and concerns. Marketing and communications courses in marketing degree programs prepare you to build persuasive cases for each of these different groups.

Classes in economics and finance will help prepare you to properly analyze economic data. Agricultural marketing specialists must be aware of market issues particular to agriculture, such as commodities markets, futures trading, government subsidies, and the impacts of farm debt. Classes in law will prepare you for a field flooded with regulations.

A minor in agricultural science is also important for a career in this niche. Agronomy classes will equip you to better understand both the components of the market, and the people involved.

To learn more about what a marketing school can do for you, request information from schools with degrees in marketing, and sow the seeds for your own future career.
