MASTER’S DEGREE IN AGRONOMY

PRESENTATION The study programme leading to a master’s degree in Agronomy starting in the 2011/12 academic year was approved on May 20, 2011 (Order Nº 7522/2011).

Agriculture in the region is an important phase change due to the increase in irrigated areas, resulting from the Multi-Purpose Alqueva Venture (EFMA), especially in crops such as vegetables, fruit, vineyards and olive groves. As such, there is an increased demand for technicians with training in these areas, hence the Master’s Degree in Agronomy. The study areas of Horticulture, Fruit Growing, Viticulture and Olive Growing are contemplated in the Master Study Plan. This course is extremely important, in that it aims at training technicians in agricultural areas with great potential for the region and in which there is a growing need for knowledge.

OBJECTIVES The Master’s Degree in Agronomy has the following objectives: Ensure sustainable agricultural production, based on technical itineraries adjusted to different crops, including precision agriculture, in order to obtain quality products with good organoleptic characteristics and high profitability for the farmer; Preserve and promote soil fertility in the long term and avoid pollution of water, soil and air; Promote the rationalization of irrigation water through its efficient management and use of good quality water; raise awareness towards protecting the health of farmers and consumers, through the supply of agricultural products obtained with reduced use of chemical synthesis products; Recognize that harvest and post-harvest treatments are very important for the preservation of product quality, with regard to the harvest season or the preservation and processing methods used; Knowledge of laws on product control, certification, labelling and marketing.
