Agricultural Technology
$135.00
A major turning point for agricultural technology is the Industrial Revolution, which introduced agricultural machinery to mechanize the labor of agriculture, greatly increasing farm worker productivity. In modern mechanized agriculture powered machinery has replaced many farm jobs formerly carried out by manual labor or by working animals such as oxen, horses, and mules. Advances in the 19th century included the development of modern weather forecasting and the invention of barbed wire. Improvements to portable engines and threshing machines led to their widespread adoption.

Advances in Agronomy
$135.00
Agronomy is the science and technology of producing and using plants by agriculture for food, fuel, fiber, chemicals, recreation, or land conservation. Agronomy has come to include research in plant genetics, plant physiology, meteorology, and soil science. It is the application of a combination of sciences such as biology, chemistry, economics, ecology, earth science, and genetics. Professionals of agronomy are termed agronomists.

Agricultural Resources
$135.00
Agricultural resources means the land and on-farm buildings, equipment, manure processing and handling facilities, and processing and handling facilities that contribute to the production, preparation, and marketing of crops, livestock, and livestock products as a commercial enterprise, including a commercial horse boarding operation, a timber operation, compost, mulch or other biomass crops, and commercial equine operation.

Organic Gardening And Farming Techniques
$135.00
Organic agricultural methods are internationally regulated and legally enforced by many nations, based in large part on the standards set by the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), an international umbrella organization for organic farming organizations established in 1972. Organic agriculture can be defined as "an integrated farming system that strives for sustainability, the enhancement of soil fertility and biological diversity while, with rare exceptions, prohibiting synthetic pesticides, antibiotics, synthetic fertilizers, genetically modified organisms, and growth hormones".

Agricultural Production
$135.00
Agricultural production has always involved the exploitation of resources such as soil, water, and energy. Increasing production to feed a growing world population while at the same time conserving resources for future generations has led to a search for ‘sustainable’ agricultural methods. Farm managers must take a long-term view when making decisions about which technologies to follow and what commodities to produce while still generating sufficient profits in the short run to earn a living. Farm managers must also be aware of possible trends in climatic conditions, and learn how to adapt their production methods accordingly.
