The scope of agricultural engineering is widened in recent years. Large number of books and research are adding knowledge to this discipline and it is difficult to keep in touch with the basic concepts and advances, in this area. The present book is intended to provide objective information to the students and others who are interested in keeping themselves upto date in this discipline. This book also helps the students for preparing for various competitive examinations like NET, GATE etc. The tips or the points presented will provide clues for solving the multiple choice questions. The objective presentation can also be useful for preparing visual aid for power point presentations. The present book is expected to fulfill the needs of the students in remembering the key points in this area. (jacket)
