I believe it should be required starting in elementary school. Basic farming class.

Same here in Denmark. I remember learning how to sow seeds, pick the crops and then properly clean them. That was in kindergarten, and when we were about 10, we grew potatoes and we were finally allowed to peel and cut them ourselves without supervision. We also slaughtered a live chicken and brewed it into a warm soup around that time. But I think that one might be more controversial, and im not sure i even think we should do that lol (and I don't think it's normal, but we lived right next to a famous viking city, and had to learn to live like iron age people for a themed week).
