Farming Tales is designed to illustrate the value and benefits of
agricultural science to the community. The package involves children of
eight to ten years old in a range of active learning, developed from
real life contexts or 'stories' taken from the agrochemical industry.
Science is exciting and relevant, and part of the aim of this
resource is to show that the same science taught in schools is used in
the world outside the classroom to solve real problems.The package
offers information on food production, the use of pesticides and an
opportunity for primary schools to become closely involved with an
industry.
