ECSA Fast Track System Agricultural Engineering

Agricultural Engineers are required to ensure sustainable environments with adequate energy, water supplies, food production and processing systems. An Agricultural Engineer plans, performs and supervises engineering work related to the development and/or improvement of infrastructure, machinery and processes for agricultural production. He/She is responsible for post-harvest handling, processing of agricultural produce and similar engineering processes in associated environmental and biological contexts. This may include the use and development of agricultural land, the environment, infrastructure (buildings, roads, river crossings, dams, irrigation systems, electrification, etc.), machines, equipment and processes.
