INTRODUCTION

Kind regards to steem agro am that gleeful to be participant of this ongoing contest , upon that I extend my regards to each and everyone steemians here.

Before I get consider the given hints closely , here I truly love to relate on what basic knowledge in agriculture means to me.

To begins with !

why do we human actually need the basic knowledge in agriculture ?

Here I personally think basic knowledge in agriculture is quite useful to everyone , because of the nature of human system. That in the sense that , no human created by the true Creator can keep living this life without food.

Due to such reason that food is very important for human body system basically to keep life going , and to provide the needed energy for the human body to be able to discharge its needed duty and all of that.

Moreso food is the kind of substance in which living human can't do without for couple of days.

Most important is that lot of these food stuffs are pure agricultural produce , why some are an extracts from the agricultural produce.

So , for any living human to have the needed fundamental knowledge in agriculture isn't bad ideal. Since the Agriculture has to deal with growing of plants crop , an aquatic live and that of livestock's. And seeing all of that beyond keeping them on commercial basis ,can also get decide to run it right , on the subsistence basis for lone consumption.

Here I personally think that this very contest hints has been rightfully considered , due to some challenges an individual or famer do face while attempting to get growing an agricultural crops either on commercial or on subsistence basis.

Briefly causes of early crop growth damage are as follows :

Water

Water is one of the composite substance in the world, in the sense that both living human , animal and plant can't do without water.

In essence whenever there happens to be less amount of water in the soil , to that extent which the crop won't be able to get sustain from , then as a direct result it would get damage the crop growth.

Nutrient

The obvious is that as everyone living human do need food on constant basis to survive , moreso do plants crop.

In essence every plants crop do directly depends on soil nutrient to grow and survive.

Then, when the soil on which given plants crop is lacking nutrient , it would get very hard and tough for the crop on such soil to grow and get yield. Most especially when the cultivated soil is lacking these major elements such as : potassium , nitrogen and phosphorus.

Temperature

Temperature is very good for everyone living thing when it's very moderate , in which whenever it's excess it not good enough, and whenever it's lacking , it capable of causing real damage and possible dead.

Rightly applicable to crop growth , it should be known that every crop plants get synthesize their food through getting trapped sunlight. And when it not actually there it could directly contribute to either an early crop growth damage or an actual damage to given grown ones.

The following are the importance of nursery pots in plant early growth:

  • Nursery pots when well arrange is capable of making transplanting easier

  • Nursery pots as I share above visible in that image are quite lightweight and very portable , for ease mobile transplanting

  • Nursery pots do help reduce the rates of competition among crop , basically after seeds germination

  • Nursery pots do facilitate healthy root development during an early crop plant.

  • Such nature of nursery pots seeing above is capable of providing sorts of controlled or protection against some dangerous environmental pest or rodent.

Differences between monocotyledon and dicotyledon plant

  • Monocotyledon is basically get known as the kind of crop with only one plant seeds cotyledon , while that of Dicotyledon is mainly about that plant seeds with two cotyledon.

  • Monocotyledon is that crop with kind fibrous nature of root while Dicotyledon happened to be the crop with tap root nature.

  • Monocotyledon can't actually undergo secondary growth , while Dicotyledon has that nature due to the presence of cambium to directly undergo secondary growth.

Example of monocotyledon and dicotyledon plant
