PREFACE
This book, Agricultural Engineering Comprehensive Board Exam

Reviewer Volume II was prepared primarily for the agricultural
engineering students and graduate who are preparing for the licensure
examination for the professional agricultural engineers.
The contents of the book are series of questions and problems to make the
students recall the fundamental theories and concepts in agricultural
engineering. Most questions are tricky and practical in nature to test
whether the students has digested the principles in each of the different
subject matter in agricultural engineering. At the end of the book, the
answer key for each question and problem are provided.
This is the second of the three volumes of the Reviewer. The content
deals with the various processes involved in agriculture and food
operation, agricultural building and infrastructure, farm electrification,
refrigeration and cold storage of food, environmental engineering and
management, and agricultural waste utilization
This book is still in draft form and is produced in limited copies.

Additional items will be included in the future to make this material more
comprehensive. Comments and suggestions are welcome for the
improvement of this manuscript.
God bless and may this book become useful to you at the moment!
