About the Future Harvest Education Kit

These materials are designed to encourage students to investigate the range of factors involved in producing food and other products that we use in our everyday life.

The education kit can provide the basis for an integrated unit of work for students working on Levels 3 to 6 of the Victorian Curriculum and Standards Framework (CSF) in the areas of Science and Studies of Society and Environment (SOSE).The activities can be adapted for Technology programs, and VCE teachers will find resources for the subject areas of Agriculture and Horticultural Studies, Science, Geography and Environmental Science.
