Agronomists are called crop doctors with a wide range of work concerned with the well-being and health of crops used for fuel, food production and land reclamation. Agronomists are scientists whose area of study is plants and soil in order to increase soil productivity; develop better cultivation, planting and harvesting techniques; improve crop yield, quality of seed and nutritional values of crops; and solve problems of the agricultural industry. They are experts in the science of soil management for land reclamation and crop production to improve the quality of seed and the nutritional values of crops. Agronomists conduct tests and are concerned with the practicing principles of soil management and crop production in fields. They conduct experiments to increase soil fertility and develop best methods for increasing crop productivity and quality. Primary duties of an agronomist include, best way to use land after performing statistical analysis of data, measurement of soil salinity and nutrient levels for planting crops.

Agronomists examine crops for the signs of disease, insect or pest problem, weed issue or problem with the soil. They think critically to solve problems concerning planting, cultivating, harvesting and protecting crops from pests, weeds and harsh climates.Agronomist work with farmers to conduct experiments and help to grow best possible crop with extensive knowledge of Agriculture, crop science,chemistry,biology, ecology, earth science, genetics and economics.They evaluate crop data collected; to find ways to improve the next generation crop. Agronomists compare results with scientific research journals and reference books to pinpoint the cause and find a solution. They present research findings to farmers to use the information for growing and harvesting agricultural products. Agronomists help farmers to manage crop planting and implement efficient farming practices; improving crop efficiency and sorting any agriculture.
