Tractor and Farm Equipment Repair
The use of biotechnology to modify the genetic makeup of crops and livestock. Genetic engineering can improve traits such as yield, disease resistance, and drought tolerance. For example, developing genetically modified corn that is resistant to pests and herbicides.
self-regulating: Controlling itself without outside intervention. Most tropical rainforests are self-regulating environments. Farmers benefit from understanding self-regulating ecosystems for sustainable land management.
EA: Abbreviation for Environment Agency. Understanding the role of the EA can help farmers comply with environmental regulations and improve sustainable farming practices.
Field Pansy: A widespread flower (Viola arvensis) increasingly found in winter crops, especially cereals. Also called corn pansy, love-in-idleness, cats faces. Managing field pansies helps maintain crop health and biodiversity.
Yorkshire: Yorkshire refers to a breed of large white pig. Farmers benefit from raising Yorkshire pigs for their excellent meat production and adaptability.
reproductive: Referring to the production of offspring. Understanding reproductive processes helps farmers optimize breeding programs and improve livestock production.
Programs and initiatives designed to provide education, training, and support to farmers and agricultural professionals. For example, participating in agricultural education and training programs to learn new skills and improve farm practices.
paraquat: A herbicide that destroys a wide range of plants by killing their foliage and becomes inert on contact with the soil. It is poisonous to mammals, including humans. Using herbicides responsibly helps in effective weed management while minimizing environmental impact.
YFCYFC: The Young Farmers Club (YFC) is a social organization for young farmers. Participation in YFC provides education, support, and networking opportunities for young farmers.
spacing drill: a precision seed drill. Using spacing drills ensures accurate planting and optimal crop establishment, supporting productive agriculture.
