Abstract

The aim of this paper is to explore the significance of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) in teaching English to students in the
agricultural sector. As globalization increases, the demand for specialized knowledge of English in various industries, including
agriculture, grows. ESP courses tailored to the needs of agriculture students play a vital role in preparing them for international
collaboration, research, and access to global resources. This paper outlines the key benefits of ESP in the agricultural sector and
discusses effective teaching strategies.
