In this paper we discussed farm internship in a curriculum for university students. Farm internship in Yao farm gives effects such as securing labor force in the present and future, and adding value through student involvement on the farm. For students there are also effects such as understanding of the actual conditions and issues of agricultural management, opportunities for communication and farther experiences. The COVID-19 crisis deprived such opportunities from both students and farm. We have provided alternative materials over the network and secured learning opportunities for students. However, substituting off-campus activities is a difficult task, and it is necessary to develop further methods.
