Sayansi ya kilimo

Sayansi ya kilimo (kwa Kiingereza: agricultural science) ni tawi la biolojia linalojumuisha sehemu za elimu mbalimbali zinazotumiwa katika kilimo.

Mtaalamu wa kilimo kazini kwenye shamba

Mara nyingi hugawiwa katika elimu ya kilimo cha mimea, elimu ya mifugo na uchumi wa kilimo. Tiba ya mifugo mara nyingi haihesabiwi humo.

Sehemu za sayansi ya kilimo

Mtaalamu wa elimu ya udongo kazini.

Ufugaji wa kisasa unategemea ushauri wa kisayansi.

Sayansi ya kilimo ni pamoja na utafiti na maendeleo ya: ^{[1] [2]}

• Ukuzaji wa mimea na jenetikia
• Magonjwa ya mimea
• Kilimo cha bustani
• Sayansi ya udongo
• Entomolojia (elimu wadudu)
• Mbinu za uzalishaji (kwa mfano umwagiliaji, matumizi ya mbolea)
• Kuboresha uzalishaji wa kilimo kwa viwango na ubora (kwa mfano, uteuzi wa mazao na wanyama wanyamapori vinavyovumilia ukame, kukuza dawa mpya, teknolojia ya kuboresha mavuno)
• Kupunguza athari za magugu, wadudu, vimelea vya magonjwa, nematodi kwenye mifumo ya uzalishaji wa mazao au mifugo.
• Kubadilisha bidhaa asilia kuwa bidhaa zitumiwazo na wanunuzi wa mwisho (kwa mfano, uzalishaji, uhifadhi, na ufungaji wa bidhaa za maziwa)
• Kinga dhidi ya ya athari mbaya za mazingira (kwa mfano, uharibifu wa udongo, kushughulika taka)
• Ekolojia ya uzalishaji
• Uzalishaji wa chakula na mahitaji ya kimataifa, kwa kuzingatia maendeleo katika nchi wazalishaji wakuu, kama vile China, India, Brazil, Marekani na Umoja wa Ulaya.
• Sayansi anuwai zinazohusiana kilimo na mazingira (kwa mfano sayansi ya udongo, taaluma ya hali ya hewa kwa kilimo); biolojia ya mazao ya kilimo na mifugo; nyanja kama uchumi wa kilimo na sosholojia ya vijijini; taaluma mbali mbali zilizojumuishwa katika uhandisi wa kilimo.
