A Comparison of Higher Agro- Education Structural Models in Four European Countries: England, France, Germany and Netherlands

There are great differences in higher agro-education structural models among four European countries, i.e. England, France, Germany and Netherlands. A Ternary Structural Model, composed of comprehensive universities, regional affiliated colleges and independent colleges, is adopted in England, A Unitary Structural Model of independent agro-colleges in France, and Two Binary Structural Models of the comprehensive universities with academies as well as of the stated-owned comprehensive universities with local agro-colleges in both Germany and Netherlands, separately. Most of those agro-related comprehensive universities in these four European countries are titled with non-agricultural names, but agro-related academies or colleges titled with agricultural ones in these European countries except for Germany. Some of those agricultural academies or colleges were once upgraded, renamed, or merged to universities both in Germany and Netherlands. These different models have adapted to the demands of these host countries in agro-education and technology development.
