Good evening everyone, welcome to my blog.Today I cleaned the field near my house. This field is very important for everyone. It's used by the youth in playing football, some people also do parties on this field. The place was littered with different polythene, wraps of biscuits, paper, sachet of water etc.The place became clean after the exercise for the day.
Disposal by Plowing into the fields
After mixing the waste with the soil, microbial activity is increased as they feed on the incorporated decaying residues. In the presence of favourable moisture and temperature levels, decomposition of the residues sets in.
The microbes feed on them hence multiply in number, which is a good thing since they help in improvement of soil structure.
As they feed, they accelerate decomposition of the materials, which in the process releases plant nutrients like nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus and sulphur as well as other micronutrients like magnesium and calcium among others.
Therefore, burning of crop residue should be discouraged though most farmers do it to curb pests and diseases.
These pictures show how I did my cleaning.
As my blog continues to grow, please continue to support and engage me.
