This publication is the result of the Illinois Annual Agriculture Articulation Conference of 1977. It consists mainly of introductory course descriptions for college courses in agriculture. The intent of the publication is to improve articulation between two and four year colleges and universities in Illinois that offer agriculture degrees. The introductory courses outlined here are designed to be taken by agriculture majors in the freshman and sophomore years at all state and community colleges and universities. These courses include agricultural economics, agricultural education, agricultural mechanization, animal science, crop (plant) science, horticultural science, and soil science. Each course outline lists course credits, prerequisites, objectives, texts, and topics with suggested time schedules in periods. (MR)
