Berger, Dean; Lokai, Larry
This occupational analysis data was assembled to help teachers develop a course of study preparing students for employment in the agricultural supply businesses and/or services. Following a job description for employees in agribusinesses and/or services, the remainder of the content in standard task analysis format presents an analysis of twelve duties (tasks) of these employees. Each of the twelve duties is broken down into its components (one or more sub-tasks) and for each sub-task the following are given: task statement; tools, equipment, materials, objects acted upon; steps; safety-hazards; decisions; cues; errors; science skills/concepts; math-number systems skills/concepts; and communications (includes performance modes, examples, and skills/concepts). The duties covered are choosing and entering a career in agribusinesses and/or services, developing human relations, managing business money, performing office procedures, advertising and promoting, developing salesmanship, transporting agri-products, storing agri-products, and marketing agri-products.
