This week in sustainable agriculture we got our projects back and made edits and then later turned in our projects and presented some interesting facts about our crops. On block day we had a talk about water conservation and how to save water. The man talked about the months when the most water is used and why that is and how much to water plants based on their root depth to conserve water.
On the farm we worked on our management jobs. My management job is maintenance and our group worked on one of the E beds. We dug up the soil and then layered the compost onto after weeding of course. We were not able to plant anything yet but we were able to make the bed really nice so when we find out what to plant it will be all ready to go. The maintenance group also dug the trench for the pipe to reach the E beds for an easier way to water them.
That was the week and an insight into what the maintenance group is doing.
