HELLO HIVE
There are different emphasis by farmers on how we can use our farm lands to a high level of productivity, nurturing them with the right amount of needs in every period, ensuring that the moisture level and nutrients are at the right fixed amount for the crops to grow and develop. Irrigation farming isn't a new topic to farmers and I can hardly give a specific history to when this all started so I can just say that it has always been a part of human history, plants have some specific needs that have to be met and if these needs are provided naturally or artificially in the right amount then these crops begin to flourish.
Apart from irrigation farming,mixed farming is another one that has played a huge impact in agriculture and the more we get to understand how this works the better. I have made some points in the past on mixed farming, understanding the complexity of how two or more crops react to each other on the same farm land is one crucial point that i made and that point extends to so many other parts like how the nutrients are shared, how the moisture contents are shared, the amount of spacing between them.
Right before I planted these cassava on a fluted pumpkin farm I knew that these two will have to get a good level of moisture for the two crops to survive independently that's why the need for irrigation is even more important on the farm, the water keeps the fluted pumpkin plant ☘️ fresh and also the cassava looks good as well. The pumpkin wasn't planted on all parts of the farm so there wouldn't be any problem of space they were mainly planted at the edge of the farm like a shield to the fluted pumpkin plant that was my main area of concentration but even at that I am still positioned to get fresh, big tubers of cassava at the end of the day without any sought of damages to the fluted pumpkin plant so it's a win win for me at the end of the day.
