Agricultural Engineering is the engineering discipline that studies agricultural production and processing. Agricultural engineering combines the disciplines of mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering principles with knowledge of agricultural principles according to technological principles. A key goal of this discipline is to improve the efficacy and sustainability of agricultural practices

Agricultural engineers typically do the following:

• Use computer software to design equipment, systems, or structures
• Modify environmental factors that affect animal or crop production, such as airflow in a barn or runoff patterns on a field
• Test equipment to ensure its safety and reliability
• Oversee construction and production operations
• Plan and work together with clients, contractors, consultants, and other engineers to ensure effective and desirable outcomes

Agricultural engineer’s main role is to solve problems found in agricultural production. Goals may include designing safer equipment for food processing or reducing erosion. To solve these problems, agricultural engineers must creatively apply the principles of engineering.
