About the project
agronom.me is a magazine of practical agronomy. We collect in one place what you usually have to look for in scattered textbooks, manuals, and methodology guides: how a crop is structured, what it requires in terms of soil and nutrition, when and with what to treat it, and how to harvest and store the yield.
Target Audience
The materials are designed for three different types of readers, and the proficiency level is indicated for each article:
- for students — theory and mechanisms: why a method works the way it does;
- for gardeners — practical application on your own plot without specialized machinery or laboratory analysis;
- for agronomists — production technologies, standards, regulations, and calculations tailored to specific farm conditions.
What's Inside
Several hundred materials across twenty-three categories — from crop production, vegetable growing, and horticulture to plant protection, agrochemistry, agricultural machinery, animal husbandry, and farm economics. Each category is structured as a coherent section, not a random collection: crops, techniques, and related calculations are grouped together.
Sources of Materials
The articles are prepared based on specialized literature — textbooks, practical guides, and reference books from agricultural universities and scientific institutions. All sources are used with the permission of the rights holders. The texts are not reprinted verbatim: they are adapted for screen reading — broken down into sections, stripped of lecture digressions, and equipped with navigation.
We write the news ourselves. The basis is a specific report from the industry press: facts, figures, and names are taken from it, while the text is written from scratch. Materials that lack verifiable facts do not make it into the feed.
Languages
The site is available in Russian, Ukrainian, and English. Translations are carried out in compliance with industry terminology — names of crops, diseases, preparations, and techniques are rendered using their accepted agronomic equivalents, rather than word-for-word.
