摘要
Vocational training as an inter-temporal investment will bring returns in the future as people responsible take the necessary initiatives to invest today. However, training must be dynamic in nature, especially for agro-entrepreneurship to create structural changes in production, distribution, marketing and consumption. In the preparation of youth to meet future requirements of economic growth, biotechnology, nanotechnology and intelligence in computer technology play prominent roles in the context of knowledge and skill development of the population. In this process, youth should be well informed of conditions and situations of demographics, socio-cconomics, scientific, energetic and pragmatic aspects of potentials in development through effective vocational training processes in the sphere of sustainable development. By so doing, it would be easy to visualize new production vistas with a new generation of agro-entrepreneurs to yield dynamic production systems for a new world.
