Difference between Agronomy and Plant breeding

Agronomy vs. Plant breeding

Agronomy (Ancient Greek ἀγρός agrós 'field' + νόμος nómos 'law') is the science and technology of producing and using plants for food, fuel, fiber, and land reclamation. Plant breeding is the art and science of changing the traits of plants in order to produce desired characteristics.

Similarities between Agronomy and Plant breeding

Agronomy and Plant breeding have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Calcium, Chemistry, Genetics, Green Revolution, Hybrid (biology), Insect, Maize, Nitrogen, Organic farming, Phosphorus, Plant, Protein, Triticale, Wheat.

Calcium

Calcium is a chemical element with symbol Ca and atomic number 20.

Chemistry

Chemistry is the scientific discipline involved with compounds composed of atoms, i.e. elements, and molecules, i.e. combinations of atoms: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during a reaction with other compounds.

Genetics

Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms.

Green Revolution

The Green Revolution, or Third Agricultural Revolution, refers to a set of research and the development of technology transfer initiatives occurring between the 1930s and the late 1960s (with prequels in the work of the agrarian geneticist Nazareno Strampelli in the 1920s and 1930s), that increased agricultural production worldwide, particularly in the developing world, beginning most markedly in the late 1960s.

Hybrid (biology)

In biology, a hybrid, or crossbreed, is the result of combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties, species or genera through sexual reproduction.
