Internships for Agricultural Businesses
Dear Editor:
Labor is a common challenge in Colorado agriculture, with businesses struggling to find qualified and trained employees, while young people have limited access to training programs with real-world work experience.
The Agricultural Workforce Development Program, funded by the Colorado Department of Agriculture, addresses these issues by reimbursing Colorado farms, ranches, and other agricultural businesses for 50% (up to $5,000) of the actual cost to employ an intern, including wages, workers' compensation insurance, and protective gear.
The Agricultural Workforce Development Program tackles both labor and training challenges in Colorado agriculture.
