Zhumadian city is a big agricultural city with developing economy but a great quantity of peasants and plentiful resources of animal husbandry.The development of animal husbandry has been an effective way for peasants being lifed out of poverty.But the existing problems including the inadequacy of scientific and technological workers and attendants;the low quality of our peasants has become the "bottle-neck" to restrict the development of animal husbandry.Therefore,it is the most urgent task to develop the vocational education on animal husbandry and veterinary surgeon.However,compared to the huge demands on the socio-economic development,the vocational education on this field has been in lower tide than ever before.The vocational education on animal husbandry and veterinary surgeon which formed under the planned economic structure is divorced from the socialist market-oriented economic structure.And the backwardness has been more and more obvious. The main problems include:the backwardness management system,the rigid model for running a school,and its products(i.e.the graduates) can not meet the market needs.The way out for developing vocational education lies on reforment.The development of secondary vocational education in our country is behind both the economic development and the world level.Since we stepped into the new century,especially since the convening of national conference on the vocational education in 2002,the secondary vocational education has been in a good situation.The vocational education is emerging.It is meeting a new opportunity.But many problems still exist.The writer has been engaged in the managing and teaching work in an agricultural vocational school for many years,and has constantly paid close attention to the problems appearing during the development of this field. This thesis tries to analyze and delve the objective situation and main problems of the secondary vocational education on animal husbandry and veterinary surgeon with using the experience of other countries for reference,and tries to explore a new method which conforms to reforming and developing the vocational education in our country.The mainly problems existing in this field are:the major of animal husbandry and veterinary surgeon has become the last choice because of the trammels of traditional ideas; the inadequacy of lecturers who also have a specialty credential;the inadequacy of teaching and practicing facilities which play a very important part in raising students' technical ability; because of the backward teaching method,graduates usually experience a long time to meet the demands of the job,etc.the solution of these problems are:to renew educational ideas;to build a pluralistic mechanism and initiate using the opening model to run a school;to combine practice with studying;to rationally arrange the courses and adjust the establishment of majors;to strengthen the training of teachers,especially the training for lecturer to get a specialty credential;to afford graduates more guidance for getting a job;to input more funds to set up a demonstration vocational education centre.The secondary vocational education on animal husbandry and veterinary surgeon should be combined with the local economy.It should develop in a healthy and sustainable way.
