There is a shortage of applicants needed to fill professional positions in horticulture, floriculture, agriculture, and other plant-based professions. The existing workforce is starting to age out, while the needs of plant-based industries are increasing. People often don’t appreciate the diversity of careers available in plant-based industries.
