- Abstract
Agriculture in Australia has a heavy dependence on engineering, but it is only in comparatively recent times that a clearly identified agricultural engineering discipline has been recognised in this country. The development of agricultural engineering is examined, and the reasons for the delay in the emergence of agricultural engineering is canvassed. Some issues for the future are raised.
