SAE Programs What is the difference between entrepreneurship and placement SAE programs? Many enterprises for SAE’s can be either an entrepreneurship or placement program.

Entrepreneurship SAE Entrepreneurship SAE refers to student activities conducted by students as owners or managers for profit. They are also referred to as ownership SAEs.

Entrepreneurship SAE Students own the materials and inputs. Usually, students begin on a small scale and expand each year.

Entrepreneurship SAE A production enterprise is when students own plants or animals for their SAE program. An agribusiness enterprise is one where the student buys and sells an agricultural commodity for profit, rather than raising or growing the commodity.

Placement SAE Placement SAE programs are those where the student is placed with an employer in a production unit such as a farm, greenhouse, nursery, etc. to produce commodities for wages.

Placement SAE In this program the student works for another individual. The students may or may not receive pay. The students do not own the products used or produced. They belong to the employer.

Placement SAE’s Students could also be placed in an agricultural agency such as; Cooperative Extension Service (CES), Soil Conservation Service (SCS), Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS), Forestry Service (FS), Wildlife and Environmental Services, and school laboratories.

Exploratory / Experimentation What is the difference between exploratory SAEs and research and experimentation SAEs? Students can use SAE programs to research and explore a variety of subjects about agriculture Itself, and careers in agriculture.

Exploratory SAE An exploratory SAE program allows students to explore subjects or careers in agriculture through specific activities. Many beginning students use this type of SAE to learn what they want to study in more depth.

Exploratory SAE The exploratory SAE will prepare students to make better future career choices or educational decisions. The student plans this type of SAE under the direction of the teacher, parent, mentor, or others. A mentor is one who has skills you would like to learn.

4.

Research and Experimentation SAE A research and experimentation SAE is a science based experience using laboratory procedures to study a problem. Research may be done at school, home, on the job, or wherever suitable facilities are available. This type of SAE is usually not considered a profit making activity.

Research and Experimentation SAE Generally, the work involves solving a problem or investigating a new product. The National FFA organization provides an award to the outstanding agriscience student and teacher based on this type of SAE.

5.

A Good SAE Program What are the characteristics of a good SAE program and what is necessary for accomplishment? Supervised agricultural experience (SAE) programs are an application of class instruction in agriculture.

A Good SAE Program Characteristics of a good SAE program includes: Basing the program on student interests. Having an agricultural focus. Providing for development of a large number of abilities.

A Good SAE Program Characteristics of a good SAE program includes: Being large enough in size to be challenging. Being diversified. Providing an opportunity to make management decisions. Having potential for profit.

A Good SAE Program Characteristics of a good SAE program includes: Requiring student involvement year round. Providing opportunities for expansion. Leading to future business ownership or employment.

Student SAE Responsibilities The student has responsibilities in conducting SAE programs include: Researching the possibilities. Keeping all parties (teacher, parents, and employers) informed. Setting goals. Keeping records of financial concerns and experiences gained.

Student SAE Responsibilities The student has responsibilities in conducting SAE programs include: Seeking out advice/assistance from teacher, parents, mentor, etc. Meeting financial obligations. Carrying out SAE program plans.

Student SAE Responsibilities The student has responsibilities in conducting SAE programs include: Self-evaluating progress. Developing an SAE program that will be valuable to the student. Giving it 100 percent.

Review / Summary What is the difference between entrepreneurship and placement SAE programs? What is the difference between exploratory SAEs and research and experimentation SAEs? What are the characteristics of a good SAE program and what is necessary for accomplishment?

The End!

Student Learning Activities Sample tests are available in the Lesson Plan tab.

Have students research a type of SAE that they find interesting, they should look into things that they can do in that type of SAE. Have students write a one to two page paper on the type of SAE they chose, they should write about something that they might like to do as their SAE.
