ANSC 301

Introduces students to the diversity of animal agriculture and agri-business. Students will participate in a seven-day field trip that will cover traditional and exotic livestock production and marketing enterprises as well as food and feed processing facilities. Emphasis will be placed on exposing the student to livestock production conditions over the range of commercial operations found in western Canada. Students will be expected to integrate information gathered from the field-trip locations into oral presentations and term reports with a goal of providing the student with background information necessary to complete upper year Animal Science courses.
