Abstract

About 10% of the academic job openings in agricultural economics will probably be filled by international students. During the early 1960s, only one-fifth of Ph.D. degrees in agricultural economics were awarded to foreign students. Currently, close to half of all doctoral degrees in agricultural economics are earned by foreign students. A survey of U.S. agricultural economics departments was undertaken to analyze the potential impact of international students on the supply of academic agricultural economists.
