Suggested Questions with Answers for Oral Questioning [continued]
Questions with Answers
1.What are the following irrigation system?
Answer : flood irrigation,furrow irrigation,graded border irrigation,
sprinkler irrigation,drip irrigation, micro irrigation
2. How to stake trees?
Answer: The basic method of staking a young tree is to plant long
stakes into the ground on either side of the tree and tie the tree to the
stakes with a tie or cord. The cords should not be tied too firmly so as to
allow the trunk to expand and sway in the wind. Although many people only
use one stake, using 1 stake may be less flexible than 2 or more stakes, and
result in damage to the tree.
3.What are the following tools use in produce fruit bearing crops?
Answer: bolo,axe,sickle,pruning shears,knife,scissors,post hole
digger, pick mattock, grub hoe, spade, shovel, hand trowel, hand cultivator,
hand fork,spading fork, rake
4. What are the step in soil sampling?
Answer: 1. Make a map of the farm showing sampling areas
2. Collect composite soil sample from each sampling area
3. Take a composite soil sample
5 What are the factor to be considered in selecting plant site?
Answer: sunlight, water and drainage, topography of the land, types of
soil, accessibility to road and transportation, climatic requirements, socio-
economics condition

Questions with Answers
1. What is best irrigation in farms?and why?
Answer: Sprinkler Irrigation
Sprinkler irrigation can be used to irrigate fields of most any size, slope, or
shape. Listed below are the different ways sprinklers are used in farm
irrigation systems to distribute water over a field.
2. Climate requirement in planting?
Answer:
Temperature
Light
Water
3. How define farm implements?
Answer:
Farm implements are accessories either being pulled by animals or
mounted on machinery. These are made out of different materials. For
native plow and harrow, these are made of wood and some parts are metal.
In the case of disc plow, disc harrow and rotavator, these are made out of
metal. These implements are generally used to till, pulverize, level the soil,
and make furrows.
4. What are the advantages in using square planting system?
Answer:
Advantages
Most easy and popular one.
In this row to row and plant to plant distance is kept similar.
Plants are exactly at right angle to each other.
Interculture operations can be done in both the directions.
Adequate space for inter-cultivation of remunerative crops like
vegetables.
