Authorizes Department of Agriculture to designate "School of Agriculture for Next Century," to support education, research, and workforce development in advanced agricultural technologies.

This bill authorizes New Jersey's Department of Agriculture to designate an institution of higher education as the "School of Agriculture for the Next Century" to focus on education, research, and workforce development in advanced agricultural technologies. The designated school must demonstrate expertise in areas such as drones, artificial intelligence, gene-editing, robotics, and precision farming, while satellite schools may be added to expand access across the state. The legislation encourages academic pathways that allow students to transfer coursework between community colleges and the designated school, but does not create new institutions or require additional state funding.
