    Crop Production Management | Nutrient Management
    As the amount of fertility in the soil determine the quantity and quality of crops yields produced in the field, nutrient management is required. Given the farming production types, in no cost type, the farmer does not invest any equipment for better production however other production farming types include low and high cost. The pattern […]

    Sprinkler Irrigation
    Being an important factor of crop growth and development, the level of irrigation is determined by the type of crop, nature of the season and the financial muscle of the farmer to buy the equipment. As sprinkler irrigation is used for irrigating crops, water from deep wells that is pressurised about 50 pounds/ sq inch […]

    Regenerative agriculture helping small scale farmers make more from a limited space – part 1
    Regenerative agriculture focuses on growing more food on small land portions by small holder farmers. A bio-secular economy is whereby farmers recycle resources they produce within their farms so that they are able to reuse them into the farms and increase production using simple technologies. Crop diversification helps reduce on pests and diseases and can […]

    Fertilizers may be granular, crystalline or liquid. Granular fertilizers can be applied directly to the soil and lightly covered to prevent loss by evaporation. Water the plants after applying fertilizers if the growing medium is not moist. This will ensure that the nutrients are absorbed by the plant roots. Granular fertilizers can be applied in […]
