Agricultural science and practice


The Agriculture Reddit

Agriculture, also called farming or husbandry, is the cultivation of animals, plants, fungi, and other life forms for food, fiber, biofuel and other products used to sustain human life. Agriculture was the key development in the rise of sedentary human civilization, whereby farming of domesticated species created food surpluses that nurtured the development of civilization.

Looking to get a agriculture related degree. Can i do this online, and what should i look out for?

I live in the SoCal valley, and agriculture is huge here. Id like to get a degree, but i am not really sure what all is out there as far as agriculture goes. I would prefer to take it online if possible. I don't really have an income source right now. I am staying with family atm.

So what im looking for is some advice on schools that offer a degree that i can take online.

Are there any good youtubers of note to follow that are in the industry and talk about the different jobs that are out there for this kind of degree?

grants/scholarships This is a topic that really confuses me. I don't really know how it all works, but how should i go about finding some for this kind of industry?

Help us validate AgroConnect! Share your thoughts and improve the agricultural sector 🌱🚜

Hey everyone! We’re working on a platform called AgroConnect, designed to connect small farmers, rural consumers, and informal workers in the agricultural sector. We're conducting a survey to understand the challenges each group faces, and we’d love your input to help shape this project.

The survey is divided into three sections:

  • Small Farmers: Tell us how you sell your products and what challenges you face.
  • Consumers: Share your thoughts on buying directly from local producers.
  • Informal Workers/Transporters: Let us know how you find agricultural work and how we can help.

How to Get Into Agri R&D With No Experience?

Hey everyone,

Just finished my Master's in Agriculture and I'm stuck on what to do next. I want to get into research and development but every job I look at wants experience I don't have yet. How do you get experience if nobody will give you a chance?

I'm open to any path that keeps me in agriculture but don't want to end up with gaps in my resume. Got any tips or ideas on where to start or companies that are cool with new grads?

Thanks a bunch!

Rancher grants

We live in Kansas and are leasing our property with the intention of buying it. We have about 12 acres that needs fenced in. I have looked at the usda website and the conservation and the state websites and I have read everything but I can’t find anything on where to actually fill out to apply for grants…anyone have experience in this or know what I’m missing?

We have separate land and we paid for the fence and the stock tanks which was not cheap I did the work though. Not trying to make excuses but we are a young married couple with a little boy which we do alright financially but this other property is going to need dance all the way and probably need water lines or something to haul water, and stock tanks which we will need assistance to help make it happen.

Any help or assistance is appreciated

Are rock pickers worth?

Hey, I usually get the rocks of the field the old way (by hand), and I have been thinking of getting a rock picker; are they worth it? Have you tried one, and has it worked well? Which type of rock pickers would you recommend?

Carrot question

What caused some carrots to be more veiny under the skin? It also feels much harder than other carrots. I saw another post in r/produce but people there don’t seem to be helpful.

The type of carrot I usually get is slimmer, fully orange inside, no marbling, or very minimal marbling. These carrots are very fat and stubby, these 3 are the longest ones I can find. A lot of them also have 2 feet like a ginseng.

I’m really just curious what could cause this difference, any scientific answer is appreciated.

What grain, vegetable and/or fruit that can grow at 40c (100 F) ?

Hi all, it seems that all produce I look up says the required temp is 20c to 30c regardless whether it is millet or barley, so what can actually grow in the summer of a desert climate (if we already produced a winter/spring produce in such climate)?

Work bench Project

Hey there, I’m a Design and Technology student from the uk studying A level D&T. For my product I’m wanting to design and manufacture a work bench for both metal work: fabrication, welding, etc and also for woodwork. This is mainly going to be designed for use in an agricultural setting.

However as part of my coursework I need to do some wider target market research. To do this I’m using a MS Form as was wondering if some of you would be able to fill it out for me. It should be linked to the post. Many thanks!

Comprehensive resources for debugging crop problems?

I'm looking for a detailed resource that gives you a guide on crops and all of their potential problems and how to solve those problems. For example:

  • Sage
    • Powdery mildew
      • Causes
      • Diagnostics
      • Treatment
    • Yellow (at bottom)
      • Causes
      • Diagnostics
      • Treatment

I'm used to this format from medical textbooks detailing pathology (in humans, however I assume the format of Causes, Diagnostics, Treatment must apply here as well). I'd also prefer the source to be academic/professional. For example, I prefer reading "This is how we determine if chlorosis is the result of poor soil pH or stomatal closure" vs "overwatering causes plant stress which may yellow leaves"

Vertical farming in Mexico to counteract drought and a good business model for supermarket chains

Hello, I have recently seen the market for vertical farms, previously I studied the topic of agricultural migration and I did an experiment looking at how to relocate producers in Mexico, seeing the need of the market specifically in Mexico, vertical farming is a good solution for both medium-sized producers and large as for supermarkets, in terms of agricultural producers and areas in drought, vertical agriculture would help them reforest and counteract the drought and for supermarkets, vertical agriculture would definitely help them cut production costs and maximize production times and quantities, the market of the vertical farming is increasing
