Dictionary of Agriculture - lsimpson

This dictionary provides a basic vocabulary of agricultural terms. It is ideal for students of land management, environmental and veterinary sciences, and is a handy reference for those working in the agriculture industries, especially those for whom English is not a first language. Each headword is explained in clear, straightforward English and quotations from newspapers and specialist magazines show how the words are used in context. There are also supplements including conversion tables for weights and measures and a list of world commodity markets. Thanks are due to Dr Mark Lyne, Department of Science, Agriculture and Technology, Writtle College and to Dr Stephen Chadd, Course Director at the Royal Agricultural College, for their help and advice during the production of this new edition.
