Explanation:

The soil is prepared for sowing the seeds of the crop by:1) Ploughing- The process of loosening and turning of soil is called ploughing. 2) Levelling- The removal of top soil by wind and water is called soil erosion. ... 3) Manuring- Manuring is done to in increase the fertility of the soil before seeds are sown in it.

soil preparation is the first step to be followed when we start the agricultural process. It usually entails the loosening up of the top layer of soil i.e. topsoil. Plants absorb water and nutrients from the soil through their roots, hence it is essential to prepare the soil, so we can have a healthy and bountiful produce.

The soil is prepared by the following methods

Ploughing

Ploughing is the process of loosening and turning the soil. Its also known as tilling. Ploughing of soil is important for the following reasons

Allows roots of the plants to penetrate deeply into the soil. This firmly roots the plant.

Loose soil also provides better aeration to the roots allowing them to breathe easily.

It assists the growth of microbes and worms, which perform decomposing and add nutrients and humus to the soil

Ploughing also removes weeds and other waste materials from the field.

It brings nutrient-rich soil to the top, which helps in the growth of plants

Levelling

Once the field is ploughed, the topsoil is quite loose. There is a strong possibility that strong winds or rain will wash away the topsoil. The soil then needs to be levelled again to ensure its strong foundation. This levelling of soil is done with an implement called the leveller, which is a heavy wooden or iron plank. Levelling of the field also helps in uniform distribution of water during irrigation. This is the final step of soil preparation.

Manuring

To increase the fertility of the soil, we add manure to the soil even before we begin sowing the seeds. We add the manure before we plough the field, so it gets properly incorporated into the soil.
