sowing methods

Sowing methods refer to how seeds are planted to grow crops or plants. Common methods include broadcasting, where seeds are scattered evenly over the soil surface; drilling, which involves making rows or furrows and placing seeds in them for uniformity; and transplanting, where young plants are grown elsewhere and then moved to the final location. The choice depends on the crop type, soil, and climate. Proper sowing ensures good seed-to-soil contact, optimal spacing, and adequate moisture, which are essential for healthy germination and growth.
