Agriculture is very important in modern life because it provides food, raw materials, and jobs; it also helps in reducing poverty and impacts food security. Agriculture ensures that there is enough food to meet the needs of the people. It's especially important during times of Crisis such as drought, flood wars, or pandemics. Food security is essential for human health, nutrition, and dignity. Agriculture provides raw materials that ensure that there is food and other products.

Share your personal Agricultural Experience( might be planting/farming or any Agricultural activity), with photos to back you up.

I have much experience in planting many crops or plants; I know how to plant yam, cassava, potatoes, etc. First of all, let me start with yam; before planting, you must wait for rain to fall first. They don't plant yam in the dry season. Before the rainy season, you will go to the farm and clear the grass with your cutlass very well, then you will burn the grass. After the first rain, they will go and make mounce. After making the mounce, you will buy seedlings. If it is too big, cut it into two; when you want to plant a yam, you will use a stick and open the place the yam will stay inside the mounce and cover it.

Cassava: how to plant cassava is very easy; you will start by clearing the bush and burning it very well; after burning it, then you will spread it very well so the smaller grass will die, and then u will make smaller mounce. Then you will look for a cassava stick. Mind you cassava stick is the that for cassava, so you will cut it smaller pieces.
