Crop production
Crop production involves growing plants for food, clothing, and other products. Important steps include soil preparation, selecting and sowing seeds, irrigation, weeding, crop protection, harvesting, threshing, and storage. Seeds are selected by testing their ability to float in water. Sowing can be done manually or with a seed drill, which distributes seeds evenly and at the right depth. Irrigation provides water to crops through traditional methods like canals or modern methods like sprinklers and drip irrigation. Weeding removes undesirable weeds, while crop protection safeguards crops from pests and diseases. Harvesting cuts and gathers crops, and threshing separates grains from plant matter. Crop rotation grows different crops in sequence to replen

This document discusses various techniques for establishing rice crops, including seeding, transplanting, and other methods. It describes seeding rice directly using dry or pre-germinated seed broadcast by hand or machine. It also discusses transplanting rice seedlings manually or mechanically. Other techniques mentioned include drum seeding, the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) method, aerobic rice production, and zero-tillage direct-seeded rice (DSR). The best establishment technique depends on local conditions like soil type and water availability.
Harvest and Post Harvest Handling of Oats
Oats are usually harvested with a grain binder. Combine harvesters are also used and are efficient and economical. If oats are short or lodged, a mower is sometimes used. For fodder, two cuttings are needed after 40 days. Oats are ready for harvest after 4-5 months when grain moisture is below 20%. After harvesting, grains are dried, threshed to remove seeds, then packed in bags. Yield is 15-20 quintals per hectare for grain and 220-300 quintals per hectare for fodder. Swathing involves cutting the crop and placing it in rows to dry. Kilning dries grains and provides flavor. Cleaning removes impurities before de

Tillage and cultivation are important mechanical soil processes for crop growth. Primary tillage, like plowing, is more aggressive and leaves the soil rough, while secondary tillage works the soil shallowly to level, firm, and control weeds. Common primary tillage implements include moldboard plows and chisel plows, while common secondary tillage implements are disc harrows and cultivators. Tillage machines can be mounted, semi-mounted, or trailed depending on how they attach to tractors.

This document discusses various aspects of tillage including definitions, objectives, types, and modern concepts. Tillage refers to mechanical soil manipulation to prepare optimal conditions for seed germination and crop growth. The main objectives of tillage are to prepare seedbeds, control weeds, aerate soil, and incorporate amendments uniformly. Types include on-season (preparatory, after cultivation) and off-season tillage. Modern concepts emphasize minimum tillage, zero-tillage, stubble mulching, and conservation tillage to reduce impacts of conventional tillage. Main field preparation involves primary, secondary tillage, and seedbed formation.
SORGHUM
This document provides an overview of sorghum cultivation practices. It discusses the taxonomy, botany, economic importance, distribution, varieties, growth stages, nutrient management, irrigation, weed management, and harvesting of sorghum. Sorghum is the fifth most important cereal crop worldwide and is used for food, fodder, and production of alcoholic beverages. It is tolerant of drought and heat and is well suited to dry, hot climates. Proper soil preparation, fertilizer application, irrigation, and weed control are required to maximize sorghum yields.
