HELLO HIVE

It is more than a month now since I started cultivating this small piece of land encouraged by the harvest that was made in the previous years of farming maize on this same piece of land and the high fertility of this soil.

The yearly cultivation of maize is important to me since it is an important of my daily diet, it always finds a where to be part of most of my dish take for instance whenever ever I wake up early after every other I would like to have a warm pap in the morning which is common to people from this part of the world and this maize that am cultivating is what I use to make this pap it could be using the maize alone or mixing it with other things like milk.

This is why the daily progress of this is very important to me, you can guess if a piece of land is fertile from the look of how progress what you've planted has made since I you started planting it. The fresh look of the leaf shows they've not been disturbed by either pest or disease.

The fertility of the land is most important in farming like in my farm here you can see that the fact that the plant is green and is growing at a steady rate is proof that the soil is fertile but in a case where the maize plant shows any signs of yellow ness or dwarfness then you should know that the land is not fertile and it would be advisable to apply fertilizer to the plant but since it is green I did think it is important to apply fertilizer just yet but I would possibly do that once it starts producing.

The soil type also plays an important role in much I should expect from this piece of land, in as much as the land is fertile it still has to be of the right soil type plant maize on clay soil is just like giving up when you've just started, even a pure sandy or pure loamy is not advisable but a mixture of both the sandy and loamy in the right proportion makes it the best that is why a sandy-loamy is best for this kind of plant. then the slope of that land is the final piece of the puzzle a too sloppy land makes it easy for heavy rainfall to wash off most of the nutrients from that soil.

Then inclusion I will say that am expecting something good from the look of things.
