about us
In science, you need an inquisitive mind that observes actions or resources, distinguishes positive and negative consequences of various activities, and finds solutions or even produces solutions through that knowledge. Agriculture includes all of this, including matrix resolution, mathematical calculations, measurements, analysis, among other scientific concepts. Agriculture is a science, then! In Art, you need a creative mind that can generate visual images and articulate those imaginations in the form of a technical ability that people can see and appreciate.
Farming also means looking at things that are not yet in nature but that can be used to bring to life new concepts that can be studied and used to build solutions.
These are objectives that cannot easily be generalized beyond the field of agriculture. The more important they become, the more primary school agriculture becomes pre-vocational training.
Learn how to systematically classify, care for, and use plants.
-Parts of a plant
- The life cycle of plants
-Crops and their requirements
- Modes of propagation
- Diseases and pests
Soil is a substance made up of five elements: rocks, organic matter of the soil, living organisms, gas, and water.
- Properties of soil
- Conditions of soil fertility
- Dangers to soil fertility
The type of soil and topographic conditions largely affect the type, size, and shape of specific tools/implements of tillage.
- Common tools
- Maintenance of tools
- Measuring equipment
Most farm crops are managed as annual plants, Which implies They expand in a cycle for one year or less.
- Set of operations required for different farm crops
- The sequence of farming operations for different crops
The children's learning process will start from that very setting to become conscious of its issues and try to find solutions. Primary school agriculture can help to achieve this aim. Farming in most of the world is part of the lives of children. From a very early age, they generally help to farm. A sound educational theory is the use of the environment. The following guidelines should be followed to make the best use of the educational possibilities provided by the environment:
Local crops should be at the center of teaching and school farm work.
Local farming methods should be discussed.
Good local farmers should take part in teaching and farm work.
If new crops and methods are discussed in school, they should be related to local conditions.
Agriculture should not be taught as an isolated field of productive activities; it should be presented as a part of people's way of life and cultural tradition. Students are encouraged to incorporate their cultural experiences and demonstrate community awareness in order to localize their project. For example, a student team from Africa may center their project around local African cultural themes and effectively Africanize their project identity.
Biology
Growing crops and keeping animals includes knowledge of botany, zoology, and ecology.
Chemistry
The fertility of soil, fertilizers, and agrochemicals.
Physics
Farm structures, machinery, and equipment.
Geography
Climate and soils.
It was inevitable that agriculture, too, became an environment where scientific knowledge and methods were implemented.
Today, agricultural science is known in its own right as a field of applied science. We know the following subdivisions:
Soil Science dealing with soil formation (geology), its physical and chemical properties, and generally speaking with all factors affecting soil fertility.
Plant Production dealing with topics such as plant physiology, plant nutrition, plant breeding, weed control, plant diseases, and pest control.
- the importance of science and technology in agriculture has made farming a little easier than it was originally.
- With many modern, game-changing developments on the horizon, the face of agriculture is quickly developing.
- For anything from harvesting to irrigation, agricultural robots, or 'bots', and robotic/driverless tractors are used.
- Gene editing, in which new food strains are produced, is entirely engineered, unlike genetically modified foods.
- We assume that agriculture's global growth, development, and sustainability rely on the advancement of innovation, technology, and practices that will take place through engineering solutions.

These days, agricultural technology is experiencing some drastic changes, and it doesn't happen out in the cornfield.

Aeroponics system of modern farming methods- aeroponic is the process of growing plants in an air or mist environment without the utilize of soil or an aggregate medium
A greenhouse is a structure made mainly of a transparent material such as glass, with walls and roof in which plants that require controlled climatic conditions are grown. From small sheds to industrial-sized
Thank you to all the wonderful participants of the Build-A-Baymax camp! We had 30 girls particpate in this two month long program where they made Baymax, everyone’s favorite robot, come to life.
