Abstract: 
Human capital theories consider that education generates skills with economic efficiency because they make it possible to produce value. Generating appropriate skills in agriculture and an educational system specific for rural areas is a dynamic objective, mainly in the information-based developed economies, where technology and production methods are changing fast. The main objective of this paper is to analyse the educational training routes in agriculture, starting from pre-tertiary education, with all its forms, and ending up with tertiary education in this field. Based on the analysis of available statistical data, the paper emphasises that despite the progress that has been made in recent years, access to education, educational training levels measured in schooling years, insertion/integration opportunities throughout the educational cycle do not meet the human capital requirements specific to modern agriculture.
