This course introduces the land application of farm mechanization in modern agriculture. This course also examines machinery used for land preparation, planting, crop maintenance, harvesting, and post-harvest processing. The construction, operation, and maintenance of common farm machinery will be discussed. Financial farm machinery performance and the economics of mechanization, including field efficiency, operating costs, fixed costs, and variable costs, for effective management decisions will be covered.
Welcome to the course.
During the semester,
This course is designed to provide a learning environment for undergraduate students to acquire skills in basic descriptive and inferential statistics related to Agriculture. It involves learning about the various ways of describing, analysing and interpreting the results of the analysis of data. Students will learn how to do the data analysis using Excel. This course will provide important fundamentals to enable the students to carry out their final year research projects. The student learning outcomes achieved in this course will support the programme learning outcome (cognitive skills and numeracy skills learning domains) that students should be able to identify crop production problems, apply knowledge to solve these problems, and suggest ways to solve them using numerical and analytical approaches. At the end of this course, students should be able to:
•Describe some basic statistical concepts.
•Distinguish between descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.
•Conduct hypothesis testing for the selected parametric and non-parametric tests in order to solve biological problems.
Enjoy the course, have fun and work hard.
