farmer practices

Answer 1

Answer:

A farmer practices leveling for the uniform distribution of water in his crop fields.

Explanation:

Uniform distribution of water is necessary for plants so that all the crops can grow in a healthy manner and this will increase the crop yield. Leveling is done after ploughing the soil. These two processes come under the first agricultural practice, i.e. preparation of soil.

What is leveling?

Leveling is the process to level the fields with the help of a leveller after ploughing the soil. Leveling is necessary because:

• It prevents the soil from being blown away by wind or water or by soil erosion.
• It helps in the uniform distribution of water in the fields during irrigation.
• It helps in preventing the loss of moisture from the soil.
