Question

Define granaries, manure, plough, irrigation

Answer 1

A storehouse for threshed grains is called granary.

Manure is organic matter, mostly derived from animal feces except in the case of green manure, which can be used as organic fertilizer in agriculture.

A large farming implement with one or more blades fixed in a frame, drawn over soil to turn it over and cut furrows in preparation for the planting of seeds is called plouging.

Irrigation is the method in which a controlled amount of water is supplied to plants at regular intervals for agriculture.

Answer 2

Hi friend,

------->>Granaries are the storehouse where thrashed grains are kept. It's large scale storage.

------>>Manure is an organic substance obtained from decomposition of plant and animal wastes. Manures are generally added to the soil before sowing of seeds.

There are different types of manure-

<>Green manure--The manure which is having green plants or leguminous plants which are ploughed along with the ploughing of soil.

<>Farmyard manure--Consists of cow dung, leaves, urine, and other Farmyard wastes.

<>Compost--Manure obtained by decomposition of dead plants and animals. It is made by farmers by dumping the plant and animal waste in pits and then bacteria decompose it.

Manure is very good to use. It improves soil texture and fertility. And increases it capacity of holding water. And make it porous.

------>>Plough is used for ploughing field and it is usually made up of wood or iron. In earlier times they were driven by animals like bulls but now we have tractors. A Plough is used for tilling field. And adding fertilisers to the field and also for removing unwanted plants.

------->>Irrigation is supplying or water to the crops in the field at some intervals.

Irrigation has two methods-:

<>Traditional methods
<>Modern methods

In traditional methods we have moat, dhekli, chain pump and Rahat as sources of irrigation. In modern methods we use drip system and sprinkler system.
