Practical knowledge is great experience
Being in the field of Agriculture means being outdoors mostly. It’s fulfilling to grow crops successfully and watch them yield a great harvest after all the work put in. The best thing in this line of work is that, you get better by practical experience with time when you’re passionate about the work. It’s not easy, because it can be challenging, but learn more and pay close attention so you can apply your knowledge to be successful. Engaging with the field workers also creates an environment where they devote themselves and they too can learn from you. about the work.
