AG 529 - Chemistry In Agriculture
Chemical Principles as the Foundation of Sustainable Agriculture
Credits: 2
Prerequisites: Academic Background Required: 60 undergraduate credits completed
Delivery mode: Online
Agriculture is fundamentally rooted in chemistry, shaping everything from soil composition and plant growth to nutrient cycles and environmental sustainability. Chemistry in Agriculture - Part 1 serves as a refresher course on key agricultural chemistry principles, providing a comprehensive foundation in the chemical processes that govern modern farming. Through a structured, multi-part series, this course revisits essential topics such as atomic structure, energy and measurement, water chemistry, ions and precipitation, thermodynamics, surfactants, pH balance, and critical nutrient cycles-including nitrogen, phosphorus, and carbon. By connecting these fundamental chemistry concepts to soil fertility, crop production, and sustainable land management, students will reinforce their understanding of the scientific mechanisms that drive agriculture.
