The master’s examination in focus

What does it actually mean to become a master farmer? The master craftsman examination aims to determine knowledge, skills and experience for the tasks of a master farmer in the company. Graduates must be able to prepare production estimates, make decisions about technical measures and carry out production taking into account quality as well as environmental and animal welfare. The controlled management of plant and animal populations and the organization of training for trainees are also part of the job description.

The exam itself is divided into several parts: production and process engineering, operational and corporate management as well as vocational training and employee management. In order to be successful, practical tests and written tasks are required that are based on real operational situations. A minimum level of professional experience is also a requirement in order to be admitted to the exam.

Insights into the requirements

The exam requirements are comprehensive and require participants not only to have technical knowledge, but also the ability to conduct economic analysis and manage employees. If you don't pass right away, you have the opportunity to repeat exams up to twice - a good incentive to try again and not give up on your dream of becoming a master.

The appreciation for agriculture and its skilled workers is clearly reflected in today's honor. By holding such events, not only is the hard work recognized, but it also clearly reinforces the value of education and ongoing training in our agricultural sector. Agriculture therefore remains an important mainstay, not only for the Upper Bavaria region, but for all of Bavaria.
