PIKE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Career paths in agriculture As the world population grows, the role of the agricultural sector will become even more prominent. There should be significant demand for agricultural pro- fessionals capable of meeting the chal- lenges facing the world as it confronts climate change and food shortages. That makes now a perfect time for students to explore potential career paths in the ag- ricultural sector. • Agricultural engineer: Agricultur- al engineers employ engineering princi- ples to solve issues related to agricultur- al production. An agricultural engineer may design facilities or machinery or de- velop solutions to address problems re- lated to irrigation and soil conservation, among other projects. Students interest- ed in a career as an agricultural engi- neer can expect to study mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer engineer- ing, and, of course, engineering analysis and design as they pursue their degrees. • Agronomist: Agronomists work with crops and soil management and may work as analysts, environmentalists or forecasters. Agronomists may be tasked with analyzing soil structure and chemis- try and study how water is moving with- in soil. Students will study agriculture, biology, chemistry, and physics en route to earning a degree that will help them become an agronomist. Mathematics al- so will be part of their studies, and statis- tics courses will be part of those studies. • Biochemist: Biochemists study the chemical and physical principles of living things and biological processes. Within the agricultural sector, biochemists will contribute to the development of agricul- tural products, including those that will serve a medicinal function. Biochem- istry, chemistry, biology, calculus, and physics will be part of students' course- load as they pursue degrees that prepare them for a career as a biochemist. • Climatologist: Climatologists will figure prominently in the agricultural sector as the effects of climate change manifest themselves more readily over the next several decades. Climatologists study climate change, variability and the biosphere. Climatologists offer insight about the effects of climate change on the growth and development of agricul- tural products, including fruits, grains and vegetables. The natural sciences fea- ture prominently in climatologists' edu- cations, and students also will study me- teorology as part of their coursework. • Food scientist: Food scientists study chemistry, biochemistry, microbi- ology, and engineering so they can assist in the development of new food products. Food scientists may manage processing plants and some serve as researchers in an effort to solve problems related to food production. • Plant pathologist: Plant patholo- gists specialize in analyzing issues relat- ed to plant diseases. Research features prominently in plant pathologists' work, and many work in university settings. Some plant pathologists work for com- panies attempting to develop pest-resis- tant plants. Advanced degrees are neces- sary to work as a plant pathologist, and students will study mycology, bacteriolo- gy, virology, and physiology, among oth- er subjects, as they pursue their degrees. The agricultural sector employs mil- lions of people across the globe. Many of those people do interesting work as they attempt to address issues facing the ag- ricultural sector.
