 '''Agriculture in the Classroom''' ('''AITC''') is a grassroots program coordinated by the [[United States Department of Agriculture]] (USDA) and the National Agriculture in the Classroom Organization. Its goal is to help students gain greater awareness of the role of agriculture in the economy and society, so that they may become citizens who support wise agricultural policies. AITC raises agricultural literacy by helping students understand the farm sources of their food, fabric and flowers.
