These studies emphasize the relationships between plants, animals and bacteria and their environment. The science of chemical compositions and changes involved in the production, protection, and use of crop sciences and livestock. As a basic science, it embraces, in addition to test-tube chemistry, all the life processes through which humans obtain food and fibre for themselves and feed for their animals.
