Abstract | To review the relevance of vocational criteria to industry needs, a study was conducted in Hawaii to assess the entry-level employment requirements in the occupational area of diversified agriculture. Materials from other states were reviewed, and three versions of a skills inventory were developed and revised. The third revision of the inventory was finalized and approved for use in an industry-wide canvass, conducted through "force focus" (as opposed to open-ended) interviews. Respondents were people familiar with either animal husbandry, aquaculture, nursery work and general agriculture, or with all major areas of agriculture. The results constitute an inventory of skills, knowledge, and attitudes deemed necessary by technicians and professionals in industry for entry into their respective professions. Those surveyed gave the highest average ratings of importance to attitudes, general management skills, and direct applications in horticulture. The ratings supply an indication of the priorities of those in the field. (This report contains the skills inventory and ratings for each item in the areas of general management, animal husbandry, agricultural construction, crops/general agriculture, plant propagation, horticulture/general, horticulture/flowers, aquaculture, and attitudes.)
