The Agrometors are a subsection of the Adeptus Mechanicus. They are among the least prestigious branches of that technology obsessed religious order, but also among the most critical to the survival of the Imperium of Man for they are in charge of maintaining it's food supply. Their expertise lies in agriculture, in the cultivation of plants and animals to various purposes On Forge Worlds, Hive Cities and the Starships of the Imperium they maintain large scale hydroponics bay, algae vats, mushroom garden and animal pens. But their biggest role is on agri-worlds, in which they oversee massive cultivation efforts, from the arrival of fresh biomass to the packaging of grain for interstellar export. Each Agrometor Magos is a walking library of information on economic plants, agricultural machinery and knows how to make the most of myriad environments. Their laboratorii are full of hydroponic planters, grow lights and smell of fertilizers and freshly cut grass as much as oil or incense.





They are among the least militant sections of the Mechanicus as outside of the odd botanical exploratory group most of them rarely have to deal with anything worse than the occasional pernicious weed. The regularly work with the Officio Agricultae of the Administratum and are more likely to have casual dealings with non mechanicus members than most. Because of their odd interest in biological life, many of their fellows of the AdMech view them as being a somewhat odd and being overly indulgent in their admiration of base biology. Even so, while this is not something that they usually discuss the Agrometors are the least likely section of the Mechanicus to be corrupted by the Ruinous Powers. While their station may not be prestigious, those that fulfill it tend to remain faithful to the Omnissiah.
