40% Final Practical

Specific Learning Outcome: 1- Knowledge of the principles of gardening foundations

and service operations of various horticultural crops.

2- Develop and create the ground and shrines appropriate

for various horticultural crops and roads suitable for

cultivation.

3- Service operations and its morphological description.

Mission The prevention department missions its

graduation to the field in order to work directly on

plants facing diseases, insect problems, laboratory

and eliminate them.

Vision: The department vision is that its graduate will

benefit from the science that studied in the

department and apply in the field and laboratory

in order to increase her experience in the future.

Objectives: 1- To get general information about field crops, and

horticulture, and how to control plant pests (pathology

+insect) by using different types of control such as

biological, physical cultural and chemical control (IPM),

and they are able to unite theoretical knowledge and

practical skills in solving problems of plant protection

and beneficial insects and bee keeping.
