Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to teach how to protect the crops from the biotic and abiotic stress by using cultural practices, measuring the water and nutrient level of the crop plants, sowing time and sowing system of the crops with respect to the particular agro-environmental conditions in the field crops production
Course Content
Fundamental principles of field crop production, crops ecology, morphology, growth and development and yield establisment, also, environment-grain yield relationships from sowing to maturity, cultivar, sowing time, sowing type, sowing density, fertilization and application against drought and high temperature will be covered
Course Precondition
No need
