Agricultural school
An agricultural school is a vocational school for agricultural professions .
Germany
On the basis of the work of Albrecht Daniel Thaer and his founding of the Agricultural Academy Möglin , numerous agricultural schools emerged as winter schools in Germany from the middle of the 19th century . The theoretical training in two semesters in winter time and later advanced training courses became a model of success in most rural districts in Germany and a good basis for the examination to become an agricultural master.
The training, initially intended only for men, was increasingly opened in the second half of the 19th century. Rural and rural women's education (or their deficiencies) had long been a problem area in the empire and was an important topic of the bourgeois women's movement . As early as the 1870s, some women's associations had set up household establishments, and the courses were just as often held in winter. The Reifenstein schools (1896–1990) increasingly offered agricultural training courses for women of the upper classes from 1900 onwards.
The structural change in agriculture that began in the 1950s led to the closure of most schools, such as the Eppingen Agricultural School and the Hohenheim Agricultural School . The Albrecht Thaer School in Celle is a current agricultural school.

Austria
The following agricultural schools are available in Austria :
- Secondary Agriculture and Forestry Colleges (HLFS) and teaching and research centers (LFZ) used to Matura lead
- Agricultural and forestry schools (LFS) as a vocational middle school
- Vocational schools for agriculture
The schools subordinate to the Ministry of Agriculture are grouped together as agricultural and forestry schools (LFLA).
While the agricultural schools had steadily declining student numbers in the post-war years , they have been enjoying increasing popularity again in recent years. This is seen in the context of the increased interest in new forms of agriculture (Austria is the world leader in organic and organic farming ), which represents a new and more socially respected professional perspective in the context of nature conservation and sustainability , with a tendency towards a more highly qualified workforce in the sector that has emerged in recent years (there are no more unskilled farmers today), as well as in the closer connection between agriculture and tourism ( agrotourism , wellness sector , nature tourism , gentle tourism ), and not least due to the change in the agricultural structure of Austria after joining the EU, which, in addition to funding, also opened up new markets in the quality sector - all of which made better training necessary, but also made the professional field more attractive.

- (1)No breakdown by agriculture and forestry. Since a total of 393 pupils were registered at higher forestry schools in 2009/10, i.e. almost 11% of the number of pupils in agricultural schools, the ratio for the qualifications should be comparable: there are around 550 qualified agricultural professionals and around 60 forest managers.
- The statistics show women and men trained equally in the agricultural sector. 35.1% of all agricultural and forestry operations were run by women in 2009 (+1.5% compared to 2005), which shows that the glass ceiling in this sector has largely been broken - the average monthly gross income in agriculture and forestry, In 2008, however, fishing and fish farming was 1,435 euros for men and 1,046 euros for women; the enormous income gap exists here too.
- Compared to the students, there were only 1,257 apprentices in agriculture and forestry at the end of 2009 , 1,054 of them in external apprenticeships, and 203 in home apprenticeships (on their own farm), but around 9,000 students of all branches at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (2009 graduates over 1,000) - So numerous lateral entrants with a higher degree in the agricultural sector in the broader sense
