Merging Technology and Tradition: A Comparative and Unique Insight into Organic Farm Internships in New Zealand and China

Internship plays a crucial part in preparing a student to deal with all kinds of challenges in one’s professional life (Rastegari Henneberry, S., & Radmehr, R. 2020). It promotes the skills of an individual through experimentation in learning. The importance of theoretical learning cannot be underrated, yet a healthy balance between theory and practice polishes the individual to become a competitive person in the respective field. The skill enhancement even becomes more important for an agriculture student as agri-business is the matter of producing food, raw materials, and even more than 50% of revenue for a country. Agricultural practices in organic farming, coupled with theoretical knowledge, serve as a link between institutions of higher learning and agricultural producers (Ermatovich, Y. S. 2021). Thus, it is crucial to give students real-world experience, especially in the agricultural sector, to avoid any major blunders (Ermatovich, Y. S. 2021).
