According to Gliessman and Francis et al., agronomy and ecology were first linked with the study of crop ecology by Klages in 1928. This work is a study of where crops can best be grown. [4] [21] [22] Wezel et al. say the first mention of the term agroecology was in 1928, with the publication of the term by Basil Bensin. [10]
