The course begins with a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of horticulture, including its definition, objectives, and classification.
We’ll discuss important methods of plant reproduction, growth, and propagation, along with the main abiotic or non-living factors that are critical to the propagation process. We’ll also take a look at the components of the soil and soil substitutes that can be used for growing plants.
We’ll explore the classification and taxonomy of the plants that are commonly used in horticulture and learn about the main methods of planting and sowing cultivated crops. We’ll also learn about the key aspects, characteristics, forms of reproduction and propagation of root, bulb, tuber, flower, fruit, and seed horticultural plants.
Finally, pests! The course describes the classification of pests that are commonly observed in horticulture, before moving on to explain their management and control.
