How were farmers able to grow crops in regions without a steady supply of water?
Farmers in regions without a steady water supply can use irrigation methods such as drip irrigation, sprinkler systems, or canals to provide water to their crops. They can also practice water conservation techniques like mulching and planting drought-tolerant crops to reduce water usage. Additionally, they can utilize technology such as moisture sensors to monitor soil moisture levels and optimize watering schedules.
What modern technology is used by farmers to indicate when to plant crops?
A Cotten monkey
Why did Most farmers work the land?
Most farmers work the land to produce crops and raise livestock to feed their families and communities, and to earn a living by selling agricultural products. Working the land also allows farmers to contribute to the local and global food supply.
New technology helped farmers produce more crops which tended to?
lower prices
Why must farmers in the region rely on irrigation?
Farmers in the region often rely on irrigation because the natural water supply through rainfall may be insufficient or unreliable to support crop growth. By using irrigation, farmers can ensure a consistent water supply for their crops, leading to higher yields and better overall productivity.
What did AAA do?
AAA controlled the supply of seven "basic crops" by offering payments to farmers in return for taking some of their land out of farming, not planting crops.
How did some farmers try to raise crop prices?
Some farmers began destroying their crops in a desperate attempt to raise crop prices by reducing the supply.
How did farming in the south change after the civil war?
Farmers diversified their crops
What does the manipulation of DNA in plant crops allows farmers to produce?
genetically modified plants/fruits/vegetables
How does gps help with planting crops?
A GPS helps with planting crops because you can follow exact coodrinates. A good GPS system will allow you to be accurate within 5 feet, and a great one within 5 inches. This allows you to plant, accurately, to maximum amount of crops without planting outside the specified area. A GPS also allows for less overlapping on passes through a field which saves a lot of diesel fuel and time for farmers.
What is made with recombinant DNA technology and helps farmers use less insecticide?
Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) crops are made using recombinant DNA technology, and they produce a protein toxic to certain insect pests. When insects feed on these crops, they ingest the Bt protein, leading to their death. This technology reduces the need for insecticide sprays on crops, providing a more environmentally friendly approach to pest control for farmers.
What crops did tenant farmers grow?
Tenant farmers grew a large variety of crops.
