YOU ARE THE FUTURE OF AGRICULTURE
When you study agriculture at North Central Missouri College, you are immersed in the field, quite literally. We pride ourselves in our hands-on learning at the Barton Farm Campus which gives you experience you will not get anywhere else. There are many agriculture degrees to choose from at NCMC, and all are ideal for gaining practical experience in livestock or crop production, agribusiness, equine management or agriculture operations. In addition to learning in-depth agricultural skills, you are using the latest technology to understand precision agriculture. NCMC offers an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) and many Certificates in the agriculture program. After you complete your two-year degree, you can head straight into the field or transfer to a four-year college.
