Farm-engineering choices cover land preparation, sowing, interculture, irrigation, spraying, harvesting, residue handling and post-harvest equipment. Match implement size, energy, operator skill and maintenance to farm scale and soil condition.
Planning considerations
- Confirm local conditions, intended outcome and target user or market.
- Review investment, labour, water, energy, transport and maintenance requirements.
- Verify current regulations, permits, certification and scheme details from official sources.
- Start with small, measurable steps and maintain clear farm/business records.
