Agricultural electrification is not a lousy major.

Introduction of Agricultural Electrification:

Agricultural electrification refers to the widespread use of electricity in agriculture. An important part of agricultural modernization, mainly including: electricity as a power resource for agricultural mechanization; the use of electrical devices for temperature increase, heating, cooling, lighting, etc.; electronic equipment (such as electronic computers) for production management. Agricultural electrification is a sign of the development of agricultural productivity to a certain level.

Agricultural electrification:

Agricultural electrification is also called rural electrification. It refers to the extensive establishment of power station networks in the countryside to deliver electricity to the countryside in order to improve agricultural production and improve the lives of farmers. Agricultural electrification is an important condition for the mechanization of agriculture, for example, ploughing the land with electric tractors, harvesting with electric harvesters, irrigating with electric pumping machines, shearing sheep with electric shears, milking with electric milkers, etc., which can not be separated from electricity.

Agricultural electrification overview:

1882, T. Edison in the United States, New York, established the world's first power station and put into operation shortly after the State of California, that is, began to be used for food production, lighting and pumping irrigation. 1920 alternating current and transformer applications, so that it is possible to transmit electricity to the vast, dispersed agricultural areas, thus providing the conditions for the development of agricultural electrification.

The United States began to set up rural electrification agencies in the 1930s, and passed the Rural Electrification Act, which promoted the development of agricultural electrification by granting loans. After the October Revolution, the Soviet Union, on the one hand, to strengthen the construction of rural power base, on the one hand, test, production for the electrification of field operations with machinery and equipment.

To the 70's, all the state farms and collective farms have basically realized the electrification, and the emergence of vertical multi-motor-driven rotary tiller, fertilizer spreader, ploughing machine and cotton harvester and so on. At present, in developed countries, almost all farms and farms have been electrified. However, the level of agricultural electrification in developing countries is still low and the development is not balanced.
