CROP PRODUCTION

Agriculture (from Latin agricultura, composed of "ager" which means "field" and "anger" means cultivating) is a process by which humans adjust their ecosystems to meet the food and economic needs of their societies. It refers to the know-how and all the activities concerned with the exploitation of land and other natural environments (aquatic, aerial) for plant and animal production (including micro-organisms) and the development of other Socio-economic systems for welfare (fishing, hunting, trade, crafts, etc.).

The subsystem developed here does not take fishery products into account. It is exclusively dedicated to all products from soil cultivation.
