Agronomy Intern
March 2019 • Faulkton, SD
What I liked
I loved how much the company cared about me and genuinely wanted me to get the most out of my internship. I learned a lot and got to experience many things I didn’t think I would’ve been able to. I got to see every side of agriculture!
What I wish was different
The only thing I wish was different was the weather and timeline of this years summer. I had to work very long hours because of the limited time we had to get everything done.
Advice
Make sure you go into an internship with an open mind and be willing to learn new things! No employer likes it when someone thinks they know everything. To make sure you get a lot out of your experience, you need to be open to criticism and accept help when needed.
