MODERN METHODS OF FARMING

STEPS TAKEN BY THE GOVERNMENT • EASY LOANS FROM BANKS • REPAYMENT OF LOANS ON EASY INSTALMENTS • SUBSIDIZED RATES OF SEEDS AND IMPLEMENTS

KHARIF CROPS THE CROPS WHICH ARE SOWN IN THE RAINY SEASON ARE CALLED KHARIF CROPS. EXAMPLES ARE PADDY MAIZE, SOYABEAN AND COTTON.

RABI CROPS THE CROPS GROWN IN THE WINTER SEASON ARE CALLED RABI CROPS. EXAMPLES OF RABI CROPS ARE WHEAT, GRAM AND PEA.

BASIC PRACTICES OF CROP PRODUCTION

PREPARATIO N OF SOIL

THE PREPARATION OF SOIL IS THE FIRST STEP BEFORE GROWING A CROP. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TASKS IN AGRICULTURE IS TO TURN THE SOIL AND LOOSEN IT.

TOPICAGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS

HOE IT IS A SIMPLE TOOL WHICH IS USED FOR REMOVING WEEDS AND FOR LOOSENING THE SOIL. IT HAS A LONG ROD OF WOOD OR IRON. A STRONG, BROAD AND BENT PLATE OF IRON IS FIXED TO ONE OF ITS ENDS AND WORKS LIKE A BLADE.

COTTON CROP

CROP DUSTER

Traditional Farming Methods Across much of Africa, people farm the same way they have for centuries. These young farmers in Ethiopia are using a camel-drawn plow to work the soil.

Soil is a vital part of life on Earth. Without good soil, we could not grow food. This farmer is

CULTIVATOR NOWDAYS PLOUGHING DONE BY TRACTOR - DRIVEN CULTIVATOR. THE USE OF CULTIVATOR SAVES LABOUR AND TIME.

SOWING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF CROP PRODUCTION. BEFORE SOWING, GOOD QUALITY SEEDS ARE SELECTED. GOOD QUALITY SEEDS ARE CLEAN AND HEALTHY SEEDS OF A GOOD VARIETY. FARMERS PREFER TO USE SEEDS WHICH GIVE A HIGH YIELD.

TRADITIONAL TOOL THE TOOL USED TRADITIONALLY FOR SOWING SEEDS IS SHAPED LIKE A FUNNEL. THE SEEDS ARE FILLED INTO THE FUNNEL, PASSED DOWN THROUGH TWO OR THREE PIPES HAVING SHARP ENDS.

SEED DRILL NOWDAYS THE SEED DRILL IS USED FOR SOWING WITH THE HELP OF TRACTORS. THIS TOOL SOWS THE SEEDS UNIFORMLY AT PROPER DISTANCES AND DEPTHS. THIS PREVENTS DAMAGE CAUSED BY BIRDS. SOWING BY USING A SEED DRILL SAVES TIME AND LABOUR.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FERTILISER AND MANURE

FERTILISER MANURE A fertilizer is an inorganic salt. Manure is a natural substance obtained by the decomposition of cattle dung human waste and plant residues. A fertiliser is prepared Manure can be in factories. prepared in the fields. A fertiliser does not provide any humus to the soil. Manure provides a lot of humus to the soil.

IRRIGATION THE SUPPLY OF WATER TO CROPS AT DIFFFERENT INTERVALS IS CALLED IRRIGATION.

Sprinkler system

DRIP IRRIGATION IN THIS SYSTEM, THE WATER FALLS DROP BY DROP JUST AT THE POSI TION OF THE ROOTS. IT IS CALLED DRIP IRRIGATION. IT IS THE BEST TECHNIQUE FOR WATERING FRUIT PLANTS, GARDEN AND TREES.

sprinkler system This system is more useful on the uneven land where sufficient water is not available. When water is allowed to flow through the main pipe under pressure with the help of a pump
