Intern (2027)

Grow Your Career with Central Valley Ag Your future in agriculture starts here. Since 2011, the Central Valley Ag Internship Program has provided college students with the opportunity to gain real-world experience, explore careers in agriculture, and build relationships with professionals across the cooperative. At CVA, our interns aren't here just to observe—they become part of the team. During our 10-week summer internship program , students gain hands-on experience, take on meaningful projects, develop professional skills, and discover where a career in agriculture can take them. Our internship program is also an important part of building CVA's future. We want to get to know the next generation of agricultural leaders, help them grow, and create opportunities for talented interns to return to CVA as full-time employees after graduation . More Than an Internship Agriculture offers more career opportunities than you might think. Throughout the summer, CVA interns have opportunities to learn about different areas of the cooperative, connect with employees and leaders, and experience the many careers that keep agriculture moving. Whether your interests are in agronomy, sales, operations, technology, livestock, energy, marketing, or precision agriculture, there's an opportunity to learn, contribute, and grow at CVA. Agronomy Take your classroom knowledge to the field. Agronomy interns work alongside experienced CVA team members while scouting fields, assisting with product and seed delivery, learning about crop production, exploring new agricultural technologies, and gaining exposure to both the sales and operational sides of a cooperative.

Feed Explore the livestock and feed industry while working alongside CVA's Feed Team. Interns gain exposure to feed sales, customer relationships, mill operations, and the business processes that support our feed division.
