Agricultural Engineering, also called biological and agricultural engineering, is the branch of engineering concerned with maximizing the efficient use of natural resources. This manifests itself primarily in relation to food, since Agricultural Engineering seeks to improve the way food is grown, stored and transported.
Utilizing principles from mathematics and science, Agricultural Engineering creates practical solutions to agriculture issues. Positions in agricultural engineering typically require at least a bachelor's degree, and they're usually available from companies in departments like sales, research and development, production or management, writes the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. While there are many different kinds of specialties in this field, Agricultural Engineering consists primarily of design, research and analysis. |
