Description

Definition
Land Preparation - is the process of preparing the soil through primary, secondary or general tilling.

Clearing (Man) - zero tillage, land preparation by man alone.

Plowing - refers to breaking the soil surface using a plow. Type of labor use in plowing can be man and animal, and man and machine (two-wheel tractor and/or four-wheel tractor).

Plowing (Man-animal)

Plowing (Man-machine, 2 wheel)

Plowing (Man-machine, 4 wheel)

Harrowing - refers to breaking up clods and lumps of soil and to provide a finer finish, a good tilt or soil structure that is suitable for seeding and planting operations. Type of labor used can be man and animal, and man
and machine (two-wheel and/or four-wheel tractor).

Harrowing (Man-animal)
Harrowing (Man-machine, 2 wheel)
Harrowing (Man-machine, 4 wheel)

Furrowing - turning the bottom of the soil and throwing a ribbon of soil into one side leaving a trench on the soil using moldboard plow. Type of labor used can be man and animal, and man and machine (two-wheel and/or four-wheel tractor).

Furrowing (Man-animal)
Furrrowing (Man-machine, 2 wheel)
Furrowing (Man-machine, 4 wheel)

Preparation of planting materials - is the selection and cutting of cassava vines.

Hauling of planting materials - refers to the transferring of cuttings to the field.
Planting - refers to the direct planting of cuttings in straight rows.
Replanting - refers to planting of cuttings to serve as replacement for damaged camote plant.
Care of Crops - refers to process of providing plants the conditions that will help them grow and make them free of weeds, pests and diseases.

Fertilizer application - application of soil and plant nutrient to the proper places in the soil like urea, ammonium phosphate, complete fertilizer, etc.

Fertilizer application (basal) - fertilizer is broadcast over the entire area followed by cultivation to mix the fertilizer with the soil. Shallow plowing and harrowing are done two or three times to ensure even
distribution of fertilizer applied.

Fertilizer application (side dressing) - application of fertilizer on or in the soil near the roots of a growing crop without cultivation, usually beside each row during 10 to 15 days after planting. This is very effective during the developing stage of the plant when they feed on nutrients very rapidly.

Fertilizer application (top dressing) - fertilizer is applied on a specific area where the plants either in bands, in rows or by hole method.

Soil ameliorant application - application of soil nutrient to enhance the condition of the soil.

Weeding (manual) - uprooting or removing weeds by hands.
Weeding (chemical spraying) - removal of weeds or unwanted grasses growing among cultivated plants by spraying herbicides/weedicides between the rows of the plants or on dikes.

Off-barring (man-animal) - refers to plowing between rows of plants with furrow slice thrown back-to-back to the center between plant rows.

Hilling-up - refers to plowing between rows of plants with the furrow slice thrown toward the base of the plant.

Hilling-up (man)
Hilling-up (man-animal)

Chemical application (other than weedicide) - application of chemicals to protect the plants from pests and diseases.

Harvesting (man) - is the process of digging mature crops from the fields by hands.
Harvesting (man-animal) - is the process of digging mature crops from the fields using man and animal-drawn plow.
Harvesting (man-machine) - is the process of digging mature crops from the fields using man and machine-drawn plow.

Picking - is the process of gathering and piling of matured crops.

Sorting - refers to the grouping of the produce according to common physical characteristics e.g. quality, class, kind or size.

Bagging - process of stocking the matured crops in containers such as bags, sack, etc.

Hauling - bringing the produce to the place where it will be temporarily stocked.

Hauling of produce (man)
Hauling of produce (man-animal)
Hauling of produce (man-machine)

Washing / Cleaning - is the process of removing soil stucked on the harvested camote roots.
