Agriculture refers to the production of food and goods
through farming and forestry. Agriculture was the key
development that led to the rise of civilization, with the
husbandry of domesticated animals and plants (i.e. crops)
creating food surpluses that enabled the development of more
densely populated and stratified societies.
Horticulture is the industry and science of plant
cultivation. Horticulturists work and conduct research in
the disciplines of plant propagation and cultivation, crop
production, plant breeding and genetic engineering, plant
biochemistry, and plant physiology. The work particularly
involves fruits, berries, nuts, vegetables, flowers, trees,
shrubs, and turf. Horticulturists work to improve crop
yield, quality, nutritional value, and resistance to
insects, diseases, and environmental stresses.
