Prepare Fields

Land preparation is crucial for preparing the field for planting. A well-prepared field prevents weeds, recycles plant nutrients, and provides a soft soil mass for transplanting and a suitable soil surface for direct seeding. Normally, it takes three to four weeks to prepare the field for planting. For E-Training you can check video on our YouTube channel

Monitoring Crops

Crop monitoring is essential for controlling pests, weeds, and diseases in crops using precise technologies. This provides information if the plants are under stress from pests, weeds, or a lack of water. Get online satellite-based advisories from our App inFarmer .

Prepare your Soil

You need to check whether your soil is acidic, alkaline or neutral. It would be best if you looked out for a soil whose condition is neutral as it helps in growing healthy plants. After monitoring, you should continue to add fertilizers, manure, and pesticides to your field at regular intervals to keep your soil healthy.

Seeding

Crop seeding plays an important part in production since the health of the crop or plant is determined by how well the seed interacts with environment. Production is likely to be lower if the seed is poor.

Watering

Irrigation is an important part for the production of a crop, as it provides soil moisture to the roots in order to grow. For tips all you need to do is sign up on inFarmer and get online feedback of your crops and plants.

Apply the correct fertilize

You need to take care when fertilizing plants as researches have shown, too much of any fertilizer can burn roots, reducing their ability to absorb water. Getting a soil test through your local extension agency will provide you with accurate information on nutrient levels in your soil.

Don’t crowd plants

Due to a lack of light, water and nutrients, plants that are planted too closely together typically grow poorly. Additionally, diseases can spread when an infected leaf touches a healthy one, which is more likely when plants are close to one another. Trim off overgrown, broken, or ageing stalks on plants to control the disease or pest attack.

Keep an eye on your bugs Viruses and bacteria can usually enter a plant easily if you do not take care at right time. Some insects really carry viruses from one plant to the next.

Sufficient Sunlight

Lastly, crops need adequate sunlight, moisture, and nutrients to grow healthy.
