Goals	Explains concepts related to replication, Explains the propagation methods used in horticultural plants. The appropriate method or methods for the propagation of horticultural plants are determined according to the current conditions in which the propagation will be made. Propagates garden plants using the appropriate method or methods according to the current conditions in which the propagation will take place. Applies the maintenance procedures of the newly propagated plant, It follows the maintenance operations of the reproduced material and detects problems. It carries out the duplication process in accordance with production standards. It follows innovations in the method of propagating horticultural plants. Fulfills its responsibilities in teamwork regarding the proliferation of plants.Being aware of the methods of evaluating the available opportunities and using them effectively, Gaining the ability to take precautions to protect the environment during cultivation, Providing the opportunity to experience ways to evaluate the grown product
