What could cause rich soil to lose their nutrients?
ANSWER: Over use such as planting the same type of plant in the same plot of land year after year. That is why farmers rotate the crops they plant in a field from one year to the next.
How does crop rotation help the crops?
if you plant the same plant every year, the plant will only take the nutrient it needs and will suck up all that and leave may other nutrients. with crop rotation the amount of the nutrients stays in balance.
What do farmers add to their soil and why?
some farmers add fertilizer, and some add manure. they are for the same purpose. to help grow their crops! :)
What is a way to control soil erosion in which farmers plant different crops in different places each year?
Crop rotation is a sustainable farming practice that involves planting different types of crops in the same area in a recurring sequence. By rotating crops, the soil structure is preserved, soil erosion is reduced, and nutrients are naturally replenished. This method also helps to control pests and diseases, leading to healthier soil and crops in the long run.
What is it called when farmers try to protect the soil by alternating the crops they plant each year?
Crop rotation. It involves planting different crops in a sequential pattern on the same piece of land to help maintain soil health, reduce pest and disease pressure, and improve crop yields.
What do farmers use to plant seeds?
The same way they did back when; plowing and watering.
Can land be recycled?
Yes, land can be recycled. When farmers use a land for a certain crop, they will typically use it until they've sucked the nutrients out of it. However, different crops use different nutrients. Thus, many farmers will rotate their crops, growing different crops in the same plot different years. Also, if they stop using the land for crops, a lot of times the soil can regain its normal nutrients composition (via rain, plants/animals pooping/dying, etc) and the normal plant species for that area can re-inhabit it.
Which of the following is true about concentric circles?
Farmers had more control over their crops than with sharecropping.
Why do farmers used fertilizers?
Farmers use fertilizer because they need it for their crops to grow very big and be sold for more and more easily. It is also because as you use the same land repeatedly for farming the essential nutrients from the soil drops. So to enhance the nutrients in the soil for the plants or crops to grow faster the farmers add the required fertilizers to the soil. Care should be taken in not using excessive fertilizer which might damage the crops.
How did ranchers and farmers think different about cattle ranching?
Ranchers wanted to use the land to graze their cattle on and make money off of their cattle, whereas the farmers wanted to use that same land to grow their crops. Farmers didn't like (and they still don't) cattle free-ranging across their fields, and a bit of friction was caused between ranchers with their free-ranging cattle and the farmers who just wanted to plant a few plots of wheat for their families.
What do farmers do on St Patrick's Day?
Farmers do the same kinds of things on St. Patrick's Day that they would do on many other days of the year, and other days at that particular time of year. Farming goes on, no matter what the date. So things like milking cattle, feeding animals, dealing with crops and so on, have to go on every day.
What does planting the same crops on the same crops on the same soil for many years?
Planting the same crops on the same soil for many years can lead to a depletion of nutrients in the soil, which can impact plant growth and yield. It can also increase the risk of pests and diseases that thrive on a specific crop. Crop rotation is a farming practice that can help replenish soil nutrients and break pest cycles.
