62. Program Options | Agronomy @ The University Of Minnesota, Crookston appropriate skills necessary for employment in plant industry management (agronomyand/or horticulture);; demonstrate skills in general education and management http://www.crk.umn.edu/academics/Agro/programoptions/

Program Options The B.S. in plant industries management is a career-oriented program that combines science-based agricultural training and education with a strong liberal arts background to produce graduates skilled in the highly technical fields of agronomy, soils, and horticulture. The flexibility of the agronomy emphasis enables students to build a thorough understanding of crop science with a concentration in areas such as crop production, diversified agriculture, agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, integrated pest management, seed conditioning and technology, and other areas related to production and quality in the food and fiber industry. Career opportunities in agronomy include agricultural chemicals salesperson, crop product salesperson, crop research technician, elevator manager, fertilizer salesperson, laboratory technician, seed and grain inspector, soil testing technician, seed analyst, seed company field representative, crop consultant, seed conditioning plant manager, crop improvement field representative, and crop production. Career opportunities in horticulture include floral designer, garden center manager, greenhouse operator, horticulture supplies salesperson, nursery manager, golf course grounds manager, landscape contractor, landscape designer, and public grounds supervisor.

63. Alumni Profiles | Agronomy @ The University Of Minnesota, Crookston Dufault and Johnson emphasized the opportunities available in agronomyand agriculture in general. “The world is your office, travel http://www.crk.umn.edu/academics/Agro/Careers/SimplotAlumni.htm

Alumni Profiles Agronomy Alumni on UMC's Commitment to Agriculture Agronomy alumni now working for J.R. Simplot spoke to Associate Professor Marv Mattson's agronomy class in early March 2003 “Agriculture is here right here in the valley. Farming today is ten percent of agriculture,” says Dave Dufault, area sales manager for J.R. Simplot Soilbuilders. “Agriculture includes many additional areas: fertilizer, chemicals, land and livestock, food and fiber, and of course turf or horticulture,” says Dufault. Dufault, an alumnus of the University of Minnesota , Crookston (UMC) and currently Simplot sales manager based out of East Grand Forks, along with J.R. Simplot crop advisors and fellow UMC alumni, Trent Johnson, Scott Cameron, and Chris Hoff stepped back on the campus in early Marchto speak with current agronomy students. Dufault and Johnson emphasized the opportunities available in agronomy and agriculture in general. “The world is your office, travel is great, and you are not confined to a cubicle,” Johnson told the class. He went on to explain to students that the field of agronomy is vast and growing. “The personal contact I have daily and quarterly with my clients,” he said, “well, it includes personal contact. It isn't a typical nine-to-five working environment.” Johnson, a crop advisor, consults with area farmers and scientists on his staff to deliver information to his clients about products, application procedures, and yield information. “I never face the same challenge twice, and if I think I have an obstacle totally figured out, well, I am in trouble,” Johnson told students.

Agronomy Faculty Advisor Assistant Professor: Brian Baldwin Mississippi State University Agronomy is the study of crops, seeds, and soils. A B.S. degree graduate in Agronomy may work as a plant breeder, a pasture management specialist, a golf course superintendent, a turfgrass manager, a soil conservationist, a soil scientist, or a county agent, or may do research for an agricultural experiment station or a commercial organization. Seed companies that produce, harvest, condition, test, store and sell seeds employ agronomists. Plants provide the food for all animal life. Efficient production of crops is the basis for progress in any civilization. Sales from crops amount to over 1.5 billion dollars each year in Mississippi; this is half of the total agricultural sales in the state. Agronomists are concerned with the production of crops for direct sale and, additionally, with production of feed crops for a growing livestock industry. The soil is a basic natural resource which agronomists are committed to conserve and improve. Agronomists who work with turfgrasses are concerned with the aesthetic values of soil conservation, urban development and community living. Many opportunities are open to graduates in agricultural business and industries serving agriculture. Agronomists can prepare themselves for these careers by careful selection of specific courses in business and marketing. Consideration should be given to the following courses in combination wth the General Agronomy emphasis.
