Full Description
Herren's AGRICULTURAL MECHANICS FUNDAMENTALS & APPLICATIONS, 8th Student Edition, addresses the ever-evolving field of agricultural mechanics and the needs of students in high school and post-secondary agricultural education programs. New chapters focus on renewable energy and innovative and emerging technologies in agriculture such as robotics, lasers and drones. Knowledge and skills are built through measurable learning outcomes, relevant and authentic content and assessments. Hands-on learning is emphasized, including detailed project plans, instructive data tables, information on the SAE for All program and projects related to agricultural mechanics. Content is aligned to the AFNR Standards and YouScience® Industry Certification Standards, highlighting connections to each of the STEM disciplines. The text builds student confidence and promotes success in the classroom and beyond.
