Agronomy and Agricultural Research

Agronomy is the science of crop production that considers how to grow crops efficiently and profitably while conserving natural resources and protecting the environment. Agronomy necessitates the integration of many sciences, as well as collaborations among many different fields, such as soil, plant, and weed sciences, as well as ecology, entomology, climatology, and economics. Agronomy Research is a branch of agriculture concerned with optimizing food production through proper field management.

Agricultural research is a specialized type of research method that can be carried out using laboratory and field facilities as well as engaging with farmers as key informants for their development and improving their daily living standards. Agricultural research is focused on crops, animals, fisheries, forests and the environment.

Agronomy is a main branch of Agriculture. It is synthesis of several disciplines like soil science, Agricultural chemistry, crop physiology, plant ecology, biochemistry and economics.
