World Conference on Agro-Ecology and Crop Science October 19-20, 2020 Manila, Philippines

Agricultural Engineering is leading to create a new revolution in sustainable agriculture which is totally eco-friendly. By the middle of the 20th era, Agricultural Engineering derives into four types of activity like Power and machinery, Irrigation and drainage, Farm constructions and environment, Processing and electrification. Most Agricultural Engineering is aware of organic engineering, well-organized use of irrigation water, renewable energy, and environmental issues. Agricultural Engineering is fronting three great encounters: Food safety and Food security, protecting the species and natural resources and decreased employment status.

Agriculture focusses on Agricultural Biotechnology is the combination of scientific tools and techniques including genetic engineering, molecular markers, molecular diagnostics, vaccines, and tissue culture to modify agricultural productivity, quality, diversity and species protection. Agricultural Biotechnology is developed to cope up with current challenges which are usually cannot be solved by traditional practices. Agricultural Biotechnology also helps in climate adaptation, stress management, and disease management. Biotechnology has introduced modern technologies to deal with the global food crisis. Agriculture conference provides an opportunity to researchers and scientist to explore the advanced and latest research developments in the field of Agricultural Biotechnology.

Agriculture focuses on the topic agribusiness. Agribusiness is the business of agricultural production. It includes agrichemicals, breeding, crop circulation, farm machinery, processing, and seed accumulation, as well as marketing and retail sales. All agents of the food and fibre value chain and those institutions that influence it are part of the agribusiness system.

Within the agriculture industry, "agribusiness" is used easily as a valise of agriculture and business, attributing to the range of activities and disciplines encompassed by novel food production. There are academic degrees in and departments of agribusiness, agribusiness trade associations, agribusiness publications, and so forth, worldwide.

A Greenhouse is a shape with walls and roof made largely of transparent material, such as glass, in which plants requiring managed climatic conditions are grown. These structures range in size from small sheds to industrial-sized buildings. A miniature greenhouse is known as a cold frame. The interior part of a greenhouse exposed towards the sunlight becomes extremely warmer than external temperature. The primary crops grown in greenhouses include pepper, tomato, cucumber, lettuce, herbs, and strawberry.

Horticulture is the study of agriculture that deals with the art, science, technology, and business of fruits, vegetables, flowers and ornamental plants. It includes production, improvement, marketing and scientific analysis of medicinal plant, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, herbs, sprouts, mushrooms, algae, flowers, seaweeds and non-food crops such as grass and ornamental trees and plants. It also deals with species conservation, landscape restoration, landscape and garden design, management, and maintenance, research and marketing. Horticulturists apply their knowledge, skills, and technologies to grow plants for human food and non-food uses like garden or landscape design, decorations etc. Their field also involves plant propagation and tissue culture to improve plant growth, diversification, quality, nutritional value, and resistance and adaptation strength to environmental stresses. Major horticulture sections are Arboriculture, Turf management, Floriculture, Landscape horticulture, Olericulture, Viticulture, Oenology, Post-harvest physiology.

Agroforestry is an intensive study on a land management system that benefits biological interactions between forest trees or shrubs and agricultural crops and/or livestock. There are five basic types of agroforestry practices have been developed: windbreaks, alley cropping, silviculture, riparian buffers and forest and hill farming. Agroforestry helps to conserve species diversity and protect natural resources, reduce pollution, control soil erosion, and enhance wildlife biodiversity. The benefits of agroforestry include improvement of the growth of agro-economy and resource sustainability. Agroforestry practices also influence agro-ecosystem and diversification of endangered crop species. The greatest research need is to develop farm-level analyses to increase potential economic costs, benefits which may reduce risks associated with agroforestry practices and increase the market value of products. This is a vital prerequisite to the objective comparison of both production and conservation-driven agroforestry practices with alternative land use options. Furthermore, awareness should be raised among farmers and labours to improve the future market value of regional, national and international markets for commodities that can be produced through agroforestry system. Research o­n tree-crop-animal-environment interactions should be pursued to provide a scientific basis for optimizing agroforestry designs.

Agriculture Education is the teaching of agriculture, natural resources, and land management through hands-on experience and guidance to prepare students for entry-level jobs or to further education to prepare them for advanced agricultural jobs. Classes that may be taught in an agricultural education curriculum include horticulture, land management, turf grass management, agricultural science, small animal care, machine and shop classes, health and nutrition, livestock management, biology courses, etc.

Agricultural and food robots or agbot is a robot deployed for agricultural purposes. The main area of application of robots in agriculture today is at the harvesting stage. Emerging applications of robots or drones in agriculture include weed control, cloud seeding, planting seeds, harvesting, environmental monitoring and soil analysis

Food Engineering is a branch of Food Sciences which deals with the microbiology, applied physical sciences, chemistry for food and related industries. The development of the new product, modern technologies in the preservation of the food and maintenance of the food has been derived from the Food Engineering and Sciences. It provides a valuable platform for the Food Engineers to establish their views on crop development.

Food marketing brings together the food producer and the consumer through a chain of marketing activities. The marketing of even a single food product can be a complicated process involving many producers and companies. For example, fifty-six companies are involved in making one can of chicken noodle soup. These businesses include not only chicken and vegetable processors but also the companies that transport the ingredients and those who print labels and manufacture cans. The food marketing system is the largest direct and indirect nongovernment employer in the United States.

Food Science is a combined derivative of Food Chemistry, Technology, Nutrition, Microbiology and Engineering to give one the scientific knowledge to solve the associated problems related to Food products. Wherein, the Food Chemistry is a branch of Food Science which studies the chemical process, interactions of biological and non-biological food, fermentation procedure and dehydration. It includes compounds such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and fats with the combination of water, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, food additives to control the food being contaminated and toxified.

Food the most needed element in one’s life to be alive. The stuff we get from plants, animals, glucose, milk, vegetables, proteins so on is just the food we intake. The technology is the science which aids in the preparations of the food with all the stuff we get. The technology even aids in the preservation and storage processes. Modern food technology has emerged in such a way that has decreased the human work pressure. The modulations in the genomics of the food, applications of the nanotechnology for a greater production have been some valuable food technologies.

Agriculture focusses on the subject Food & Nutrients. Although many people think that food and nutrition mean the same thing, they don’t. Food refers to the plants and animals we consume. These foods contain the energy and nutrients our bodies need to maintain life and support growth and health. Nutrition, in contrast, is a science. Specifically, it is the science that studies food and how food nourishes our bodies and influences our health. It identifies the processes by which we consume, digest, metabolize, and store the nutrients in foods, and how these nutrients affect our bodies.

Food nanotechnology is a branch of nanotechnology concerned with the application of nanotechnology to food or food packaging so as to extend the life or safety of food, to detect harmful bacteria, or to produce stronger flavours. Nanotechnology has begun to find potential uses around functional food by engineering biological molecules toward functions various from those they have in nature, opening a whole new area of development. When nanotechnology or its application or Nano machine is used during production, cultivation, processing or packaging of food then the food is called as Nano food. It does not mean that atomically modified food or food made by Nano machines.

The foods that are formulated and intended for a diet management of a disease that has unique nutritional needs that cannot be met by a normal diet chart are considered as medical food. The food which has an ability to cure the disease or control the cause of a disease is known as medicinal food. Tulsi, turmeric, rosemary, ginger, Manuka honey are considered to be the top medicinal food curing and controlling the chronic diseases from time.

A fertilizer is any material of natural or synthetic origin that is applied to soils or to plants tissues to supply one or more plant nutrients essential to the growth of plants. Fertilizers enhance the growth of plants. This goal is met in two ways, the traditional one being additives that provide nutrients. The second mode by which some fertilizers act is to enhance the effectiveness of the soil by modifying its water retention and aeration.

Pesticides are substances meant for attracting, seducing, and then destroying, or mitigating any pest. They are a class of biocide. The most common use of pesticides is as plant protection products (also known as crop protection products), which in general protect plants from damaging influences such as weeds, plant diseases or insects. This use of pesticides is so common that the term pesticide is often treated as synonymous with plant protection product, although it is, in fact, a broader term, as pesticides are also used for non-agricultural purposes.

Chronic diseases are long-lasting diseases that are not contagious and preventable. Hunger and malnutrition are the most traumatic problems faced by the poorest countries, often leading to physical or mental disorder or even death. Malnutrition leads to the chronic conditions like obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and cancer.

Aquaculture is the farming of fish, crustaceans, molluscs, aquatic plants, algae, and other aquatic organisms. Aquaculture involves cultivating freshwater and saltwater populations under controlled conditions and can be contrasted with commercial fishing, which is the harvesting of wild fish. It is less commonly spelled aquiculture), and is also known as aqua farming. Mari culture refers to aquaculture practiced in marine environments and in underwater habitats.

Agriculture focusses on the subject Plant Science. Plant cells are immobile, encased in a fixed cell wall. Unlike animal cells, migration and programmed cell death play less role in the patterning of plant cells fates, nor can they move when their environment changes. If the supply of food is less or if there is a predator, animals can move, fight or fly. But plants cannot. They have to adapt constantly to their environment and their development is highly plastic. Development of the animal is mostly embryonic. The shape of the body is defined during embryogenesis and the adult derive from the enlargement of the embryo. In contrast, in plants, most of the development takes place post-embryonically and never ceases. In fact, because plants can't escape from their physical locations, they adapt and "escape" through development. When there is a lack of nutrients or energy, the plant develops its root system to explore the ground or its aerial system to get some light. Under attack from a pathogen or herbivore, the plant is able to synthesize signalling molecules to change its development and defend itself.

Agriculture focusses on soil which provides ecosystem necessary for plants and animal life. Soil acts as a base medium provide habitat, water, and nutrition to living organisms. The soil is used as a holding and interacting facility for nutrients, microorganisms, plants, and water. The soil is responsible for Agroecosystems and Eco-agriculture which indirectly help in food security. Soil purifies groundwater, provides nutrients, help in the growth of plants and regulate the Earth's temperature. Industrial, household and non-point source pollution negatively influence soil environment and finally the whole ecosystem. In recent decades, scientists have developed new practices which limit the mobility of contaminants which reduce pollution. Agriculture conference gives a chance to researchers and scientist to explore the latest and modern developments in the field of Soil Sciences and its related technology.

Agriculture focusses on the environmental impact of agriculture varies based on the wide variety of agricultural practices employed around the world. Ultimately, the environmental impact depends on the production practices of the system used by farmers. The connection between radiation into the environment and the farming structure is incorrect, as it also depends on other climate fribbles such as rainfall and temperature.
