It鈥檚 a regal affair 鈥� and the largest event in the world combining an indoor agricultural fair with an international equestrian competition.

And now, Toronto鈥檚 Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, better known as 鈥淭he Royal,鈥澛爄s teaming up with H漫画 to support agricultural education.

On Tuesday, Dal鈥檚 Faculty of Agriculture was announced as the official post-secondary education partner of The Royal. Together, the two partners will address educational pathways and career opportunities in agriculture and food with high school students, teachers and guidance counsellors.

The education-based partnership is a first for The Royal. Among many educational-related initiatives scheduled for the 2016 Royal this November, the Faculty of Agriculture will be the presenting sponsor of a guidance counselor symposium in association with the Ontario School Counsellors鈥� Association. It will also host a series of fast-paced, activity-based learning seminars about food and agriculture during the fair for high school teachers and students.

鈥淲e welcome the opportunity to challenge people鈥檚 understanding of modern-day agriculture,鈥� said David Gray, dean of the Faculty of Agriculture and principal of the Agricultural Campus. 鈥淎griculture is grounded in developing and sustaining life at a fundamental level, but also developing communities around our agricultural activities and responding to the health and wellbeing of such communities, locally, nationally and internationally.聽 We look forward to partnering with The Royal on this endeavor.鈥�

鈥淎gricultural education has been a cornerstone of The Royal鈥檚 mandate for the past 94 years,鈥� said Charlie Johnstone, chief executive officer of the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. 鈥淲ith our H漫画 partnership, we can take our focus on education to a whole new level and in the process, help our urban visitors better understand the opportunity that agriculture represents.鈥� The Royal welcomes more than 300,000 visits annually, including more than 20,000 students and teachers 鈥� and thousands more parents and children.鈥�
