These practical Spanish for Agriculture courses are designed to help English-speaking ag professionals and farm owners speak clearly, confidently, and respectfully with their Spanish-speaking teams across a variety of industries. Choose yours below.
Don't work in dairy, swine or poultry? That's okay!
If you work in another sector of ag, you will still benefit from these courses. We recommended that you take the Spanish for Dairy course.
We’ve had students from produce farmers, ranchers, pharmaceutical representatives, consultants, etc.
All courses include basic ag vocabulary that works across any ag industry.
You’ll learn words for common equipment, actions, and descriptions used daily in agricultural work in additional to general use Spanish like colors, numbers, and days of the week.
