Each rules and regulations guiding crop production to take for instance makes it a very top priority in order to achieve the aim and objectives. When I checked my inbox in my discord channel I saw a lot of questions about agriculture and this question in particular came up and that is why I dedicated my time to show us what it is all about.
If you are learning agriculture just for learning sake it is not really ideal but when you practice what you are learning gradually it will make a lot of different as well as it will make you to become a very good and bold farmer who can stand up on his or her feet to discuss extensively what you are doing in your own farm. We have thousands of people who become a farmer just by reading articles and theories alone. Yes you can also become a farmer by using this method or techniques. I am not disputing this on this side, but what I am saying is that you need to go into the farm to practicalize it physically. When you do this even when you are sleeping someone jump on you and ask questions you will be able to tackle it one after the other without even taking a break at all. So I went into the farm to practicalize this method of planting pineapple seed. And the question was how can you become a pineapple farmer?
To individual reading this article it seems a very slight question or very simple question but the answer is do you really know how to go about being a pineapple farmer? It is absolutely possible to become a pineapple farmer but it also depends on to what capacity or to what extent you can manage your farm. These are some of what you need to consider before you can operate as a pineapple farmer. You need some portion of agricultural farmland, or garden, or the use of mobile seedbed or mobile sack when you have this and a very good location which also involves a very good moderate and healthy fertile soil. Then you also source for a very good and reliable pineapple seed or pineapple crown. This is the pineapple crown.
- You can also go to the fruit seller around your environment to request or buy this that I am holding in my hand. This is what you need to collect or you buy then you go to the farm.
This is a very good pineapple car that is also healthy for planting. You need to also source for a Sweet pineapple seed not just anyhow seed.
If you have any means to pick them up and this traces should be found in it. You should always search for this tiny thread like pattern which serve as the root of the pineapple crown or seed.
This thread like pattern must be visible. I purposely showed this so that thousands of people reading it will know how to search for it. Although if your pineapple crown is looking fresh you do not have any course for this next step I made above. It is ready for planting.
The next step you need to take is that you need to remove the already covered or dried up leave portion on the pineapple crown. You see it in the pictures how It was done perfectly well.
Now it's absolutely ready to be planted after I already digged a hole which was not too deep. It must be done slightly with cutlass mainly or anything sharp object.
This was the part of the agricultural land I intended to plant the pineapple seed for demonstration purposes practically.
This was how the agricultural soil was dug. You need to also follow the steps so that what you are about to plant will have a very good contact with the soil. So many people do not know this secret.
Not too deep but it also depends on the type of soil you are using.
The plant in commenced. After the digging of the hole I carefully took the pineapple crown and use it to measure the hole. If you measure date and it is not perfectly inserted there is a problem behind, you need to fix it before proceeding.
- This was the final step and the outcome of the cultivation of the pineapple crown. Within 8 months it will start showing the flowering stages.
After the whole planting of the pineapple crown or seed I used my feet to press down the soil so that the pineapple and the soil we have a very good contact even when they commencement of rainfall.
