Well come to this module.
This course is about the design of irrigation system. An agricultural engineer sould be set to support the agricultural activity through devising solution that apply the engineering principle. Water is the basic for agriculture and the engineer has to be with skills and aptitude to design the irrigation systems appropriate to various farming, climate, land and economic conditions.
An adequate water supply is important for plant growth. When rainfall is not sufficient, the plants must receive additional water from irrigation. Various methods can be used to supply irrigation water to the plants. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages. These should be taken into account when choosing the method which is best suited to the local circumstances.
In this line the module of Design of irrigation systems is administered to the year 3 class of Agricultural engineering in Agricultcural mechanization program.
The module is made up of two main component :
1. Design of surface irrigation system
2. Design of pressurized irrigation system
It will be studied in the second trimester starting from march 2019.
For learning objective, learning strategy, covered contents and assessment strategy are described later.
Wishing you a fruit full assimilation.
This module is about the crop process technology. In this module, students will get introduced to the principles of processing the agricultural products, different engineering practices of agricultural materials and the post-harvest technology of cereals, tea and coffee, horticultural products and milk for value addition. Characteristics of physical, mechanical, thermal, aero dynamic and rheological properties of agricultural materials, which will enable them to understand the principles and application of agricultural, horticultural and milk processing, handling and storage of products. This module will cover such areas as: 1) Cereal and Legume Processing Technology 2) Tea, Coffee and horticultural crops processing and 3) Dairy Technology.
I hope it will be a good and enjoyable occasion to learn more about the above concepts.
Introduces some basic principles of engineering mechanics in simple a manner as possible. The course covers a basic introduction to both statics and dynamics. Emphasis is placed upon the gaining of real understanding of the laws and principles of mechanics

Dear Participants, welcome to this course "Basic Engineering "
At the end of this module, students would possess the Basic knowledge of different aspects of mechanical and electrical engineering. They would acquire the knowledge and skill of engineering materials, their properties and applications.
The course covers the following topics; stress and strain concepts, axial load, statically indeterminate axially loaded members, thermal stress, torsion, angle of twist, statically indeterminate torque-loaded members, bending, eccentric axial loading of beams, transverse shear, shear flow in build-up members, combined loadings, stress and strain transformation, deflection of beams and shafts, statically indeterminate beams and shafts.
The course is about the application of statistics and mathematics in Agriculture economics
This module provides to the student, knowledgeand skills related to linking the soil needs in terms of nutrients and environmental conditions conducive toward a sustainable soil fertility management. This module provides to the student the ability to understand the factors controllingavailability of crop nutrients under various soil conditions.
This Module gives an overview of soil chemical, physical, and biological properties on nutrient balances, dynamics and cycling in agro-ecosystems as well as the relation between all soil properties and climatic conditions. This Module provides students with knowledge and skills needed for the module of ‘Integrated soil fertility management’ (ISFM) with focus on nutrient use efficiency, crop residue management.
This module will examine the chemical and biological processes in soil and related terrestrial environments, and the consequences of these processes as they relate to soil productivity, environmental quality and pollution of soil and water. The student will learn about soil organisms communities (soil biota) and its impact on soil pollution in agro ecosystem ( agrocenose) and chemistry of soil organic matter( hmus chemistry)its environmental significance, particular potential labile humic substances on soil pollution).
This module describes fundamental chemical concepts such as soil solution and solid phase chemistry, sorption phenomena, ion exchange and oxidation-reduction, hydrolysis and photolysis reactions. These concepts can be used to predict the transport and bioavailability of inorganic and organic contaminants in soils and to assess the behavior of soils to crop production controlling nutrients’ availability to plants and rates of pollutant reactions as well as technologies for remediating contaminated soils.
This module focuses on developing a comprehensive understanding of econometric theory. It first introduces the classical linear regression. Other components of the module include relaxing the assumptions of the classical model, and introduction to dummy variables and simultaneous equation models. The computer is a fundamental tool in this module and students will be required to become familiar with the Econometric package (EViews, STATA, etc.)
This course is offered to second year students in the School of Food Science and Technology, Food Technology Department. It describes the basic and applied aspects of Microbiology.
It will help students
