In reviewing the two web sites, I prefer the wikipedia's definition. It is more thorough and captures the components of being an agrologist and the practice of agrology. The wiktionary definition is lacking the content of who is an agrologist and the various roles that they may play. I find this definition focusing too much on crop production and agronomy with no mention on livestock production and farm management advising.

I have posted my understanding of the various (and conflicting) meanings of agrology at http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Agrology and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agrology. I appreciate (and depended on) the very clear information on your site as I grappled with the true meaning of agrology. Please consider reviewing my 2 posts to confirm that my presentation is proper and appropriate.
