Crop and horticultural sciences is a field of study that focuses on the cultivation, improvement, and management of plants for food, fiber, ornamental, and medicinal purposes. It combines principles from biology, chemistry, genetics, and environmental sciences to enhance plant growth, yield, and quality. The course covers topics such as soil science, plant physiology, pest and disease management, agronomy, plant breeding, and biotechnology. It also explores sustainable farming practices, greenhouse management, landscaping, and post-harvest technology. Students learn both theoretical concepts and practical applications through fieldwork, laboratory research, and hands-on training. The discipline plays a crucial role in ensuring food security, environmental conservation, and economic development by optimizing plant production systems and developing innovative agricultural technologies. Graduates can pursue careers in farming, research, agribusiness, landscaping, and government or non-governmental agricultural agencies.
