INTRODUCTION
English specific purpose (ESP) is
learn english for specific purpose to get the special or specific goals. Needs
assesment or need analysis in ESP reaching ESP should not be considered as a
different kind of teaching the language but rather as an approach as it is also
based on the commonly held belief of teaching language for communicative
purposes. The problems that ESP teachers have are similar to those of teachers
of English for general purposes.
Needs Assesment or need have vary
depending on the purpose of analysis but all take the learner as a focus of
analysis. Lawson (1979) defines "need" as "something that is
recognized but it is not in any sense "discovered", and its
"existence" derives from whatever criteria are thought to be relevant
in making the diagnoses. This implies that in order to recognize
"needs" one would have to carry out some kind of assessment or
evaluation of the existing situation and the diagnosis of assessment results
would reveal some deficiency.
Need assesment or need analysis in a
language program is often viewed simply as identification of the language forms
that the students will likely need to use in the target language when
they are requared to actually understand and to produced the language.
. For most students, future specialists, need to become
proficient in a foreign language, usually English, in order tomeet a
predictable range of
communicative needs. The
best environment to
achieve this purpose is the
language course offered bythe universities the students belong to. This paper
looks at the process of designing an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) course
for students of Agriculture from the Lancang
Kuning University of Agricultural Sciences. The students are in the process of
developing expertise that will enable them to succeed in their future
internships and future jobs. They need to master communication skills in
English.

Sustainable

traditional and modern agriculture.it is neither a return to the past nor an

SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
Various
definition have been provide for what consistutes sustainable
agriculture,ranging from the narrow focus on economics or production to the
incorporation of culture and ecology.Wendell Berry has simply said “
asuitainable agriculture does not deplete soils or people.”
Overtime,the international alliance for sustainable
agriculture and an increasing number of researchers, farmers, policy –makers
and organization worldwide have developed a definition that unifies many
diverse element into a widely adopted , comprehensive definition a sustainable agriculture is ecologically
sound, economically viable, socially just and humane.
These four goals for sustainability can be applied to
all aspect of any agricultural system,from production and marketing to
processing and consumption.rather than dictating what methods can and can not
be used ,they estabilish basic standards by which widely divergent agricultural
practice and condition can be evaluated
and modified, id necessary to create sustainable systems.the result is an
agricultural designed to last and be passed on to future generations.
Exercise of passive voice: CHANGE THE SENTENCE BELOW

In agriculture also learn parallel structure.
One use of a conjunction is to connect word or phrases
that have the same grammatical function in a sentence.this use conjunction is
called parallel structure.the conjunctions used in this pattern are and, but,
or, nor.
Example : a. steve and his friend are coming for
dinner

c.he want to watch tv or to listen to music
A parallel structure may countain more than two parts.
In a series, commas are used to separate each unit .the final comma that
precedes the conjunction is optional but is customarily used.( no comma is used
when there are only two parts to aparralel structure)
Other example of parallel structure:

stron and productive farmer.

In my research,
agriculture faculty have different and similarity with English department which
learning English everyday.where English education depertment learning all of
English while in in agriculture just learning English about nature such land
,vegetable,and so on in sentence example.
Although similarity one each others learning
English.actually learning English in agriculture faculty very important in
convertation or reading and understanding in read how to grow of best plant.
About fertilizer and seed. Since the students were from multi-disciplinary
areas, their needs of terminology, of technical English varied greatly so that
the 'common core or nucleus' (Robinson, 1991) of special English had to be
taught in such a way as to break the gap between general and technical English.
CONCLUSION
English for specific Agriculture faculty
different from general English in English
education department.. Lecture materials more focused on
the development of communication skills..
In the course of four basic language skills are also developed, both speaking,
listening, reading and writing. For example study read and understanding of fertilizer and seed with easy.
This is in accordance with the practice in the field that l
requires the four language skills.
So, I think the English for agriculture is very important and very suitable for student in AGRICULTURE OF LANCANG KUNING UNIVERSITY, because many word example about nature can be help the student
practice., And English for designed specifically for learners who possess
some familiarity with the English language and who want to learn a specific
aspect to communicate within their chosen profession. Specifically, her
material is designed for farmer professionals who have an interest in learning
career-specific English relevant to their work or studies
