About TSSOT Agricultural Engineering Students in , Silchar

History

The first curriculum in Agricultural Engineering was established at Iowa State University by Professor J. B. Davidson in 1905. The American Society of Agricultural Engineers, now known as the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers, was founded in 1907.[3] Agricultural engineering has led to mono-cultural farming, paying specialized attention to one type of crop. Genetically engineered crops have sky rocketed to 145 million acres world wide by 2002. Most of which is corn and soy, that mostly feeds livestock, which we eat. Scientist have barely scratched the surface of agricultural engineering it is a living science experiment still in progress.
Agricultural engineers

Agricultural engineers may perform tasks as planning, supervising and managing the building of dairy effluent schemes, irrigation, drainage, flood and water control systems, perform environmental impact assessments, agricultural product processing and interpret research results and implement relevant practices. A large percentage of agricultural engineers work in academia or for government agencies such as the United States Department of Agriculture or state agricultural extension services. Some are consultants, employed by private engineering firms, while others work in industry, for manufacturers of agricultural machinery, equipment, processing technology, and structures for housing livestock and storing crops. Agricultural engineers work in production, sales, management, research and development, or applied science.
In the United Kingdom the term Agricultural Engineer is often also used to describe a person that repairs or modifies agricultural equipment.
