You Won't Believe How Vast Agriculture Really Is

I used to think agriculture meant just planting crops and raising animals. Then I learned about pomology and went into research mode. I discovered that agriculture spans dozens of specialized fields, from soil science and crop genetics to mushroom production and rural development. Branches include Agronomy (soil science, crop science, plant breeding), Horticulture (pomology, olericulture, floriculture), Animal Science, Fisheries & Aquaculture, Forestry, Apiculture, Heliciculture, Mushroom Production, Entomology, Plant Pathology, Agricultural Biotechnology, Engineering, Processing & Value Addition, Post-Harvest Technology, Economics, Marketing, Extension, Agribusiness, Food Science & Technology, and Policy & Rural Development.
