Answer 2

The steps involved in 'crop production' include:

• Ploughing and levelling in which the field is prepared for sowing seeds.

• 'Selection' and 'sowing of seeds' is done to select the best variety of seeds. The seeds are then sown.

• Replenishment of soil nutrients is done by adding manure and fertilizers to the soil so that the crops can give a high yield.

• Irrigation involves ensuring that the crops in the field get enough water that is required for the crops to grow.

• Protection of crops is done to prevent the crops from getting damaged because of any natural cause or because of insects.

• Harvesting is done once the crops are fully grown. During this step, the crops are cut and bundled.

• Storage of crops is done so that they can later be sold or consumed.
