What Is Preparation Of Soil?
Q) What is the preparation of soil in agriculture?
Answer:
The preparation of soil involves preparing the soil before sowing the seeds. The soil is loosened to increase the absorption of water and manures. Loosening of soil particles adds humus and nutrients in the soil that increases crop yields. Tilling or loosening the soil is done by ploughs which are pulled by a pair of bulls or it is done by using modern farm implements or tractor.
Preparation of soil helps to turn the soil and loosen it to allow the roots to penetrate deep into it. The loosening of the soil while preparing the soil, helps in the growth of several soil microbes, earthworms etc., which enrich the soil with humus and other essential nutrients.
