HELLO HIVE

Some farming practices conform to the way things should be done for different crops, and an in-depth knowledge of this saves us the stress of doing things that aren't necessary and sticking to the most important things that will boost our farming.

Some practices work more with certain crops than they do with other crops, so in this post, I highlighted some farming practices that I think will boost your farm beans farming by using the experience that I gathered over the years from farming this particular crop.

First, you have to pick the right variety, and to do that we have to consider several factors like climate, Soil, and market demands if you plan to sell. The demand for milk-colored beans is way higher than for white-colored beans and this affects the price too.

The variety that I have takes a shorter period to grow, mature, and produce, a period that is not longer than two months, mostly 40 days,s, which is why that variety is called 40 days beans by local farmers.

The taste of this variety isn't as delicious as the milk-colored beans, but the timing is what matters to me in this case.

The variety has a certain level of disease resistance, so that's a plus on its side and with the growing demand for disease-resistant crops.

Secondly, selecting the right planting time is also very important if we plant early in my region in Nigeria. The presence of rainfall during the period when the seed is produced will cause the seed to spoil while planting late means it doesn't get enough rainfall to the point when it needs it.

The timing for planting should coincide with the last two or three rainfalls, and then there is the last frost in spring to complete the rest, so we have to avoid planting when there is a risk of heavy rains or droughts.

There is a lot more to talk about, and I would touch on every aspect and make it as educative as I can because we farmers need it to cultivate a crop that needs good care, like beans.
