2. SOFIA JOY CORBELLA YVONNE BURCE JENELYN ALTHEA JAVIER GROUP 1 CHRISTIAN JOSH CAMBUSA MARKIEL ARIZALA ELTON JONH MAYOR

3. AGRICULTURAL The branch of engineering that deals with the design of farm machinery, the location and planning of farm structures, farm drainage, soil management and erosion control, water supply and irrigation, rural electrification, and the processing of farm products. ENGINEERING

4. Agricultural means “ the farming and cultivation of lands and breeding of animals”, while Engineering means “ the formation and building of machinery and equipment's for the ease of humans. AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING

5. Combine agricultural engineering is the branch of science use to build, design, improve, and construct equipment's and machinery for the ease of peoples working in the field of agriculture. AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING

6. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERS 1 2 Develop and maintain agricultural machinery, structures and equipment that complete basic farming tasks like harvesting, spraying and seeding Perform research on farms and in laboratories to conceptualize ideas for safe, efficient and environmentally friendly food production

7. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERS 3 4 Plan and develop designs for drainage, irrigation and flood and water control systems. Gather agricultural samples for experiments and analysis Inspect and perform tests on their farm equipment designs to ensure they comply with local, state and federal agricultural safety standards and regulations

8. FARM MACHINERY AND POWER

9. FARM The main concept of farm mechanization is to apply the principles of engineering and technology to do the agricultural operations in a better way to increase crop yield. This includes the development, application and management of all mechanical aids for field operation, water control, material handling, storage and processing. Mechanical aids include hand tools, animal drawn implements, power tillers, tractors, engines, electric motors, grain processing and hauling equipment's MACHINERY

10. SCOPE OF FARM MACHINERY Improved irrigation facilities, introduction of high yielding varieties. Use of higher doses of fertilizers and pesticides have increased the scope for greater farm mechanization If machines are used farmer and his animals are relieved of hard work. With the support of machines farmer can do his job better and quicker. He will get more leisure and devote his time to other works. He can earn better living.

11. BENEFITS OF FARM MACHINERY 1. Timeliness of operation 2. Precision of operation 3. Improvement of work environment. 4. Enhancement of safety 5. Reduction of drudgery of labor 6. Reduction of loss of crops and food products 7. Increased productivity of land 8. Increased economic return to farmer 9. Improved dignity of farmer 10. Progress and prosperity in rural areas .

12. FARM Farm Power is an essential input in agriculture for timely field operations for increasing production and productivity of land. Farm power is used for operating different types of machinery like tillage, planting, plant protection, harvesting and threshing machinery. POWER

14. Human power is the main source for operating small implements and tools at the farm. Stationary work like chaff cutting, lifting, water, threshing, winnowing etc are also done by manual labor. An average man can develop maximum power of about 0.1 hp for doing farm work HUMAN POWER

15. HUMAN POWER

16. ANIMAL POWER Power developed by an average pair of bullocks about 1 hp for usual farm work. Bullocks are employed for all types farm work in all seasons. Besides bullocks, other animals like camels, buffaloes, horses, donkeys, mules and elephants are also used at some places. The average force a draft animal can exert is nearly one-tenth of its body weight.

17. ANIMAL POWER

18. Broadly speaking, mechanical power includes stationary oil engines, tractors, power tillers and self propelled combines. Internal combustion engine is a good device for converting liquid fuel into useful work (mechanical work). The thermal efficiency of diesel engine varies from 32 to 38 per cent whereas that of petrol engine varies from 25 to 32 per cent. In modern days, almost all the tractors and power tillers are operated by diesel engines. Diesel engines are used for operating irrigation pumps, flour mills, oil ghanis , cotton gins, chaff cutter, sugarcane crusher, threshers, winnowers etc. MECHANICAL POWER

19. MECHANICAL POWER

20. ELECTRICAL POWER Electrical power is used mostly in the form of electrical motors on the farms. It is clean, quest and smooth running. Its maintenance and operation needs less attention and care. Electrical power is used for water pumping, diary industry, cold storage, farm product processing, fruit industry and many similar things

21. ELECTRICAL POWER

22. SOIL AND WATER ENGINEERING Soil and water engineers study the interaction of plants, animals, and humans with soil and water.  They seek ways to control soil erosion and reduce the effects of sediment and surface runoff on water quality.

23. SOIL AND WATER ENGINEERING They design, build, and maintain drainage and irrigation systems for agricultural operations as well as water control structures for reservoirs, floodways, and channels. They also design equipment for applying fertilizers and pesticides. Soil and water engineers are experts in the principles of hydrology. They must also understand chemistry, environmental science, and the mechanics of water and wind erosion.
