Course Details

Crop production is the process of growing crops for domestic and commercial purposes. Some of the crops produced on a large scale include rice, wheat, maize, jute, etc. Crop production includes all the feed sources that are required to maintain the dairy herd and the resource inputs used to produce the crops. The type of feed depends on the animal management system—conventional or organic. Feeds may include mainly corn silage, corn grain, alfalfa hay and alfalfa silage, soybeans, soybean meal, wheat, oats, distiller's grains solids, with grasses, forage, and hay and dietary supplements such as minerals. The inventory would include the production of all feed crops raised on the farm, purchased from a vendor or other farm, or sold to another farm.

The Crop Production certificate will equip you with the skills to do just that. This certificate will provide you with an understanding of soil health and fertility, inspecting and assessing your crops for diseases and pests and successful marketing your crops. Not only will you learn about crop scouting and nutrient management in a classroom setting, but you will also apply that knowledge in the lab by physically crop-scouting fields and putting together nutrient management plans. The Crop Production certificate will teach you the fundamentals of soil science and basic agronomy skills. Couple those skills with farm records and financials, and you will be prepared to rejoin your family's crop operation or manage your own farm after successful completion of this certificate.
