Nearly 80% of Afghanistan's population lives in rural areas and depends heavily on livelihoods in the agriculture sector, which, in turn, depends on agricultural production. Agricultural education is essential for fulfilling basic human and animal needs, such as food, fodder, fiber, and energy, while ensuring long-term stewardship of natural resources and the environment. Agricultural development in Afghanistan depends on agricultural education at the national and international levels. Such education is implemented by agricultural specialists and expert farmers. Scientific and researc-based education is applied through agricultural schools and institutions and their faculties, whereas traditional education is provided by expert farmers through their sustainable agricultural practices. Agricultural education can have an important effect on the sustainable development of the agriculture sector. The greatest challenges to agricultural education in Afghanistan are proper management, institutional policies and strategies, research activities, funding, and continuous war and security issues. Agricultural development also requires a focus on sustainable agriculture in the curriculum. Education and training are widely recognized as contributors to national economic growth. Although many organizations and institutions are providing agricultural education to specialists as well as farmers, the lack of updated materials is a substantial challenge in Afghanistan. The two main objectives of agricultural education in Afghanistan are: (1) to give updated information on agricultural progress from around the world to Afghan farmers, and (2) to provide essential training in agricultural technology, sustainable cultivation practices, post-harvest handling, irrigation, fertilizer management, biodiversity conservation, soil health, dealing with biotic and abiotic stresses, and climate change and its effect on agriculture production.
