Education of the Yugoslav Peasantry in the Era of Science
Antun Petak
Sažetak
The process of iscientification is a
consequence of the third scientific
and technological revolution and
has resulted in the
professionalization of agricultural
work on the family farm. This
makes it urgent to form an
adequate and complete system for
the professional education of
farmers. It is also a fact that the
development of a vital private farm
is a pre-condition for Yugoslav
farmers and agriculture to
overcome the crisis. With all this
in mind, the author investigates
the effects of iscientification on the
professionalization of agriculture as
a calling, and the education of the
future farmer. Using the results of
a secondary analysis of earlier
research, he establishes the
educational circumstances of
Yugoslav farmers as a realistic
pre-condition for their
participation in the already begun
and the expected transformation of
private agricultural production.
Analysing the scientification aspects
of agricultural production (all the
consequences of the expected
scientific and technological
breakthrough into the object, means,
manner, structure, organization and
character of work), the author
shows the direction and the speed
of professionalization and proves
that the key is knowledge, as the
so-called ultimate resource. It is,
therefore, indispensable to establish
the professional education of
farmers, which will be one of the
important answers to future
challenges.
The results of Yugoslav research
into the agricultural youth and
agricultural households, and those
of processing census data, show
that the educational structure of
Yugoslav farmers is worse than
that of other categories of the
active population, but also that
there is a positive attitude towards
the need for introducing special
professional education for farmers.
Basing his conclusions on analyse
of the present qualification structure
of farmers and on earlier results,
the author presents the main
elements of productive professional qualifications that would enable a
flexible and real answer to the
challenge of the transformation of
agricultural work and production.
