Beskrivelse
Agricultural Engineering Principles and Practice Volume 2 is the continuation of exposition on the nutty-gritty of the practice of agricultural engineering. In this volume, the soil, processing methods and animal housing and thermal environment were discussed in 3 parts. Part 1 discussed soils and water conservation practice essential for crop establishment. Basic principles of soil and water resources management, erosion control, drainage requirement and dam management are common features in this section. Plant and soil water requirements for irrigation, basic design procedures for all types of irrigation were presented in this part. The rheological properties of agricultural material that influences their behaviour during agricultural technological processes were packaged in 5 chapters and presented in part 2 of this book. Crop harvest systems, agricultural postharvest systems, crop harvest and processing equipment, fruit processing and storage facilities were common features in this part. Part 3 laid credence to structural requirements for man, animal and crop products on the farm in 3 chapters, farmstead planning, resources and layout plan were discussed, farm storage structures, and animal housing and thermal requirement for housing and processing of common products are discussed. The scope of agricultural practice is inexhaustible and that informs a continual development and expansion of knowledge as advancements takes place.
