摘要

本研究探討農場見習學員的訓練成效，瞭解學員參與農場見習的動機、對農場見習規劃的看法及對農場經營上的助益。結果顯示，學員參與見習平均年齡38歲，見習期程平均7.9個月，男性為主，以大學學歷居多，目前已投入農業者占二成五。受訪者參加見習動機以學習農業相關技能最多。對農場見習規劃合宜性、場主指導態度、場主指導方法、農場見習地點設施與整體意見等滿意度均在普通以上。以重要度－表現法(IPA)分析農場見習學員對農場見習訓練提供的各類別課程在經營管理的助益與需求情形，其中栽培技術、病蟲害防治與用藥、土壤與肥料管理及採收後處理與分級等課程落於第I象限繼續保持區，表示此類課程是學員極度重視且需要的；至於產業與市場概況、農場或農產品行銷、農機具操作與維護、農場經營與農場規劃等課程落於第II象限優先改善區，農場主應調整訓練方法，並列為優先改善的部分。相關分析也顯示，學員對農場見習訓練的預期和實際見習的情況愈符合，結訓後和農場主合作或受任用的機率愈高，呈正相關，顯示學員參與農場見習訓練後，實際訓練情形愈符合學員原本的期待，則後續受農場主任用或是合作的比例愈高，留在農業的比例也較高。
