Agricultural cycles

Agricultural cycles refer to the seasonal pattern of farming activities driven by climate and crop growth stages. In most regions, farmers plant crops in spring, allowing them to grow through summer and be harvested in autumn. After harvest, fields may rest or be prepared for the next planting cycle during winter. These cycles ensure optimal use of weather conditions and soil fertility, supporting consistent food production. They also influence farmers' planning of planting, irrigation, fertilization, and harvesting, aligning agricultural practices with natural seasonal changes for efficient and sustainable farming.
