  FPA100 LOGBOOK (WEEKS 7) 12 MAY 2023 (WEEKS 7) Activities This week, our class did mulching activities on transplanted plants.This activity was taught by the farm staff, Mr. Naim. Mr. Naim taught and told about the benefits of mulching. Mulching is  generally used to save water, suppress weeds and improve the soil around plants  but it also gives your garden a neat, tidy appearance and can reduce the amount of time spent on tasks such as watering and weeding. BENEFIT OF MULCHING - Limits weed growth by preventing light from reaching the soil surface . - Limits water loss from the soil surface, maintaining soil moisture.   -   Decreases soil temperatures and keeps it cooler on hot days and warmer on cold nights. - Covers and protects the soil by reducing soil compaction and erosion. In addition, we water the trees. This can refresh the plants and the soil. This activity is done in the morning and evening. CHALLENGES The challenge is when handling the machete to...

 FPA100 LOGBOOK (WEEKS 6) 5 MAY 2023 ACTIVITIES For this week, my class has done several activities such as field drainage and main drainage, replant seedlings, and adjusting our planting bed.This activity is carried out because they want to speed up the process of raising the plant beds and good water channels.This can reduce the water reservoir when it rains. That same week, our class transplanted trees to the plant bed. The process of transplanting trees was taught by the lecturer and farm staff, Mr. Naim.   CHALLENGES   The challenge we face is when raising the plant beds because it takes a lot of energy to prepare them. Furthermore, after we have to hoe the wet soil and rickshaw. This is very annoying for us.

WEEKS 4 (LINING AND LIMING,SEED GERMINATION) This week, we have done several tasks namely lining and liming and seed germination. This lining and liming process makes it easier for us to raise the limit and soften the soil.In addition, we use some tools and a tractor. LIMING PROCESS After we were all done with the land clearing and plowing process, we continued the liming process. For information, the liming process is to neutralize the soil because if the soil is acidic it will cause our plants not to grow normally. The suitable pH for soil is between 5.5-6.5. This process can soften the soil for cultivation. This process is very important to ensure that the plot is measured with the proper area. LINING PROCESS This process is very important to ensure that the plot is measured with the proper area.This lining process is the process of dividing the area for crop boundary, drains and mainroads.We use a measuring tape to carry out the correct measurement process. After using the tape mea...
