Morphology

agrologic = agrology (semi-transparent) = agro + logic

The term 'agrologic' is derived from 'agrology', which combines 'agro' (relating to agriculture) and 'logic' (study or science), but the specific meaning related to soil study is specialized.

Etymology

The word agrologic comes from agro- meaning 'field' or 'farm', the same agro- in agriculture, and from -logy meaning 'study', like in biology. So, agrologic describes the study of soils and things related to farming.
