Germinating crops and seedlings require proper care for maximum growth and harvest.
Potato is no different from others.
In the shortest possible time you can see our seedling acclimatizing and growing faster than I thought.
First of all the soil is fertile and the other thing we have done is too keep away weeds.

During the times we do not have enough potato stems for planting we watch out for the plants that develop quite fast like the one here.

Once it reaches this level of length we begin to cut from the new shoot to transplant it again.
In order to cover the whole land space.

Potatoes do not off require fertilizers especially where the ground is fertile.

Mechanical weeding is done in the potato plant at least once.
Been a cover crop now is the best time to weed it before the leaves cover the ground.
Once the leaves have covered the ground there will be no need for weeding the farm again since the seedlings will cover to Prevent new weeds from germinating.
That is one benefits of planting cover crops.

  • It helps majorly with weed control
    *Helps to maintain the soil fertility from decay debri that becomes that nutrient of the soil.

Agriculture is the way to go as a direct response to the horrible economic strangulation that the Nigerian state is currently passing through. You are doing well and I wish you the very best in your agricultural endeavours
