Crop production science produced angry moo (8)
I believe the answer is:
agronomy
'crop production science' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'produced angry moo' is the wordplay.
'produced' indicates anagramming the letters.
'angry'+'moo'='angrymoo'
'angrymoo' anagrammed gives 'AGRONOMY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for agronomy that I've seen before include "Rural economy" , "Science of soil management and crop production" , "Study of crops and soil management" , "Science of soil and crops" .)
