Discipline that brings together practical knowledge and scientifically-based techniques that are applied to the effective cultivation of the land
In our language we call agronomy to that discipline that brings together a series of practical knowledge and also scientific-based techniques that will be applied to culture of the earth with the clear mission of making it as satisfying as possible. Both agriculture and livestock need the intervention of agronomy with all its science and efficiency to carry out its activities accordingly.
Improve the quality of the production and transformation processes of food and raw materials
Agronomy participates without a doubt in one of the most important areas of people's lives, such as feeding because its purpose is to improve the quality of the food production and transformation processes and the raw material, which as we know, mostly arises from crops and animals.
In this important task, agronomy must study various factors
and conditioning factors linked to the physical, chemical, economic, biological, social and even economic, because all these will influence the production process.Go to the solution of the typical problems faced by agriculture and livestock
Agriculture and livestock are activities that, due to their tasks, require the resolution of some aspects to be as efficient as possible in their tasks, while the agronomy or agronomic engineering, as it is also called, deals precisely with the scientific plane and goes to the solution of the typical problems faced by the aforementioned activities.
Make the soil as productive as possible
The main mission is that the soil is as productive as possible and agronomy deals with this precisely, studies that soil in detail, its composition, the substances present that can make it stronger and also those that affect its unproductiveness, also focuses its attention on the natural environment, among others, and thus will be able to decide the most satisfactory measures and techniques to use to ensure that this soil produces the most that I can.
Promote a sustainable project
As we know, natural resources, especially those exhaustible, are at serious risk as a consequence of the irresponsible and indiscriminate use of man, while the agronomy of these times must apply above all a plan, a sustainable project, that is, one that takes this situation into account so as not to make it worse.
Take advantage of the resources of nature available to produce more and better products but to do so with responsibility and not at any cost using techniques that further damage the planet and the soils.
