Section of Agriculture Engineering

The Section of Agricultural Engineering transfers the knowledge about application of engineering science and design principles of agriculture purposes, perform tasks such as planning, supervising and managing irrigation, drainage, agricultural product processing and interpret research results and implement relevant practices to boost in the productivity of crops. Combining various disciplines, Agricultural Engineering is used to improve efficiency of farms and ensures sustainability of natural and renewable resources. Throughout the degree programme, this department includes knowledge of different types of agricultural structures and techniques used in agricultural fields such as study of soil and water conservation structures and watershed management, water reservoirs, dams,, study of tractor, related parts, their functions and attached implements, different sources of energy and energy conservation systems used in farms, study of greenhouse structures their cost estimation, study of post harvesting handling equipments, study of irrigation systems, designing and building an agricultural framework such to be a warehouse, designing the new farming skills, designing of food storage structures as well such as livestock. Students perform land surveys along with practical experience. Overall, Agricultural Engineering is concerned with improvement in farming.
