Program Description Using a framework of scientific and economic principles, agronomy examines how to use natural resources efficiently, sustainably and profitably to produce food, feed, fibre and fuel. Agronomy is one of the most diverse specializations in the B.S.A. program. Students incorporate courses from several disciplines and learn to approach agronomic issues from several different perspectives. Graduates acquire an understanding of the biological, ecological, and economic principles of crop production and soil management, as well as an appreciation of the short and long term effects of agricultural production on the environment
