Explanation:
(a) Preparation of soil: Soil is prepared before sowing the seeds. The soil is loosened to increase the absorption of water and manures. Loosening of soil particles adds humus and nutrients in the soil that increases crop yields. Tilling or loosening the soil is done by ploughs which are pulled by a pair of bulls.
(b)Sowing is the process of planting. An area or object that has had seeds planted in it will be described as a sowed area.
Sowing is the process of planting seeds. In sowing, generally little soil is placed over the seeds. ... It offers greater precision; seed is sown evenly and at the desired rate. The drill also places the seed at a measured distance below the soil, so that less seed is required.
(c)Weeding can be defined as the removal of weeds (unwanted plants) from the field. Weeding is necessary because weeds compete with main crop plant for the different factors such as water, sunlight, nutrients and space and hence affect plant growth. ... By mulching, we can prevented the growth of weed.
(d)Threshing is the process of loosening the edible part of grain (or other crop) from the straw to which it is attached. It is the step in grain preparation after reaping. Threshing does not remove the bran from the grain.
