This exploratory study aims to analyze the present state of middle school students' participation in the agricultural and rural programs of the Free Semester System. Furthermore, we contemplate its meaning by analyzing program satisfaction of students and career interest in the agricultural and rural sectors, as well as the perception of the value of agricultural and rural jobs. In order to accomplish these research aims, a questionnaire survey targeting 591 students in the second grade of middle schools was carried out. Only 8.3% of students participated in the agricultural and rural programs. However, their satisfaction with the programs regarding career education was above average. Moreover, there was a small difference between the experienced and non-experienced students concerning career paths and jobs in the agricultural and rural sectors. As a result, it is hard to evaluate whether participation in the agricultural and rural programs influences student perception on agricultural and rural career paths in a positive way.
