Direct sowing is placing seeds directly in the ground. While seedling cultivation is a state in which seeds are first cultivated in a tray and under controlled conditions (traditional treasury or greenhouse) and after the seeds have turned into strong and resistant seedlings, the seedlings (seedlings) are transferred to the main land. It will be.
The benefits of using transplants rather than direct cultivation
- The use of transplants reduces the cost of seed consumption by reducing seed consumption. Currently, most farmers prefer to use hybrid seeds to produce quality products and maximum yield. The cost of hybrid seeds is usually higher. In direct cultivation, farmers usually plant more seeds to obtain the required number of seedlings.
- In times when cultivation is delayed for any reason, seedling cultivation can compensate for the lost time.
-In seedling cultivation, the farmer can transfer strong plants to the field during transplanting, and in this way, he will have a uniform field with strong plants.
-Usage Transplanting shortens the growing season and uniformity in the field
- Another significant effect of using transplants instead of seeds is the reduction of water consumption and water supply costs. The use of transplants saves water consumption for 2 to 3 weeks, or in other words, two to three times of irrigation.
The benefits of direct seed cultivation
- Direct seed cultivation has a lower initial cost.
- Direct seed cultivation is very simple and applicable to all farmers
