The younger Drinkard earned a B.S. in horticulture at VAMC in 1906, and an M S. in 1908, while working as a records clerk for the Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station.

In 1912, he obtained a Ph.D. from Cornell University and was promoted to associate horticulturalist, and in 1916, was named station director.
