Essential Agricultural Science, chapter 13, page 130 131. Technology have a massive role in the developing of agriculture industry. BRIEF HISTORY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN PHILIPPINES: PRE-COLONIAL PERIOD: SPANISH PERIOD: Medicine and advanced science were introduced in formal colleges and universities. Improved productivity per unit area is more than ever required to sustainably meet the food, feed and fi-bre needs of the worlds growing population. Agricultural Technology. From improved seeds, to modern crop protection solutions, to mobile technology for farmers in the fields, to making foods fresher, safer, and healthier along the food chain, the agricultural and food system of the future can be more productive, more sustainable, more efficient, and more interconnected. The role of science and technology in the quest for the best method of improving the yield of crops, protecting crops against diseases and pest, making livestock healthy all the time, designing the best method of crops storage and even helping in predicting the climate conducive for agricultural practice can not be over emphasised. We can only enhance our production through adopting modern technology, producing resistance verities. As [] Now a farmer can cultivate on more than 2 acres of land with less labor, and can cut costs even more when they are looking for a used tractor and other harvesting technology, versus new equipment. The use of poor quality seeds nullifies the utility of all agronomic practices and every other input applied to the crop no matter how lavishly they are applied. burn' technology (Mitchell, 1977: 505). flown with the vibrant science and technology policy in Ethiopia due to the slow social and economic development process. of the important elements in agriculture. 1.
