Potato Farming
Potato farming involves the cultivation of potatoes, a popular root vegetable. Farmers prepare the soil by tilling and adding nutrients, then plant seed potatoes in rows. Proper care includes watering, weeding, and monitoring for pests and diseases to ensure healthy growth.
Harvesting typically occurs 70 to 120 days after planting, depending on the variety. Farmers carefully dig up the potatoes to avoid damage. After harvesting, the potatoes are cleaned, sorted, and stored for sale or further processing. This farming practice is essential for food supply and supports many economies worldwide.
