What is the name of the profession in which one studies agricultural parasites?

Question

In spanish its called Ingeniero agronomo en parasitologia agricula

Help Please!!!

Answer 1

It would be a subclassification of Agricultural scientist, then you would specialise in entomology (insects) and then parasites.  I don't think theres an engtlish word for it as such.

Answer 2

It is called Parasitology.

Answer 3

a person that studies parasites is a parasitologist, i did it hear and was called a parasitologist with an animal science degree in agriculture

Answer 4

In Italy (from where I am answering) there is not a "speciality".Every doctors in Agricolture are patented in "entomology" and illness of plants..and..fertilisers..To become "Agronomo" we must study 6 year in the university..

Some time they ask help to ..biology professors !

Answer 5

In Spanish is called actually:

"Ingeniero Agrónomo con especialización en Parasitología Agrícola".

The name in English would be:

"Agricultural Engineer with an degree in vegetable parasitology".

Answer 6

Your question is very broad.  If I could read the Spanish, it would probably clear this up, but I can't.  The study of parasites in agriculture would include both animals and plants. The study of internal and external parasites in animals is Veterinary Medicine.  In plants, it would be the study of agronomy, with a speculation in controlling the insects and weeds that affect crops.
