What Is Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering?
Broadly speaking, agricultural and biosystems engineering (ABE) is the application of engineering principles to any process associated with producing food, fiber, and timber and management of our natural resources.

Agricultural and biological engineers:
· devise practical, efficient solutions for producing, storing, transporting, processing, and packaging agricultural products.

· solve problems related to systems, processes, and machines that interact with plants, animals, microorganisms, and biological materials.

· develop responsible uses of agricultural products, byproducts, and wastes and for our natural resources-soil, water, air, and energy.

And they do all this with a constant eye toward improved protection of people, livestock, and the environment.
