This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to research plant structures, investigate plant growth and responses to horticultural practices, and analyse plant reproduction for horticultural practices. The unit applies to individuals who apply specialist skills and knowledge to apply knowledge of plant physiology to horticultural practices, and take personal responsibility and exercise autonomy in undertaking complex work. They analyse and synthesise information, and design and communicate solutions to sometimes complex problems. All work is carried out to comply with workplace procedures, health and safety in the workplace requirements, legislative and regulatory requirements, and sustainability and biosecurity practices. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
