Sustainable Ag. Opportunities

Hello Erin,

The Alternative Farming Systems Information Center, National Agricultural
Library, publishes an annual directory called "Educational and Training
Opportunities in Sustainable Agriculture". It does list all kinds of
programs, from internships and summer jobs to university programs.  There
are about 400 listings in the last edition (9th, Dec. 1996); each
entry gives a brief description of the program and contact information.
Although most programs listed are U.S., there are some international
programs included as well. 

The directory is available under "AFSIC Publications" on the AFSIC homepage,
http://www.nal.usda.gov/afsic. A hardcopy version is available free of 
charge from the center.  Please let me know if we may send you a copy.

Sincerely,
Mary V. Gold, Assistant Coordinator
