Abstract :
Instrumentation for engineering measurement and control in agricultural research is described. Instrumentation and control of temperature, light, and data recording functions are discussed, with analysis of the drawbacks of these systems. Areas where improved instrumentation is needed are described. Specific instrument system examples are given to illustrate progress in process and environmental control.
