WikiProject Report: Agriculture
WikiProject Agriculture is a relatively new WikiProject that was started on 19 September 2007 by Doug (talk · contribs). It is dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to agriculture. It is still a very small project, having been started recently, and currently has ten members. Originally proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals, the project quickly garnered support from the community, was started in its creator's userspace, and then created, with five supporters.
Topics covered by the project
The agriculture project covers a wide range of topics, including:
- Crop production
- Livestock production
- Milk and other dairy products
- Forest products and Forest management
- Farm mechanics
- Agricultural support products (fertilizer, pesticides, etc.)
- Diseases and pests in agriculture and livestock
- Agricultural support organizations
The Assessment department
The project's only department is its assessment department. So far, WikiProject Agriculture has accumulated two B-class agriculture articles, two Start-class articles, and twelve stubs (out of agriculture articles that have been rated using the {{WPFarm}} template). It has yet to assess any Good articles, A-class articles, or Featured articles related to agriculture, and 97 articles remain unassessed. A discussion has been initiated at Wikipedia:WikiProject Agriculture/Assessment/Top-importance articles about agriculture-related articles that have been assessed as Top-importance on the project's importance scale and could be collaborated on by project participants.

How to help
WikiProject Agriculture, being a very recently created project, could be greatly helped by new members. If you would like to assist the project, you can add your name to its list of participants. The project's to-do list contains multiple tasks that can be completed, including article writing work and also the creation of infoboxes for articles within its scope.
