agriculturer or agriculturist

Hello, A strange question but still, which is correct - agriculturer or agriculturist? Somehow I remember as a school kid (in an American school) using agriculturer and not, agriculturist. But now on the Net I keep seeing agrculturist?!? So did something change? Or have I lost my memory completely? I did see on Wikipedia agriculturer used as a synonyme to farmer.. Thanks for your answers!

It �s agriculturist.
http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/agricultural#agriculturalist
And it �s a very reliable source. I couldn �t find agriculturer to see its meaning.

Dictionary.com doesn �t have "agriculturer", but it does have "agriculturist", meaning a farmer or an expert in agriculture. Bruce |

agriculturist and agriculturalist are the same. I agree, Lynn, that agriculturalist is more common. Bruce |
