Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Agronomy is the science and technology of producing and using plants for food, fuel, feed, fiber, and reclamation. Today, food scientists and researchers are exploring the field of agronomy to produce food, create healthier food, manage the environmental impact of agriculture, and create energy from plants. This book studies the fundamentals of agronomy which include plant breeding, plant genetics, plant physiology, and agricultural soil science.
