How to Plant Crops in the Philippines, the Traditional Way

How most farms here still plant each crop, from getting the field ready to the harvest, with the day of every step. Each guide also says what to change for a higher yield, because the traditional way is a starting point, not the best a field can give.

These are the traditional ways

Each guide shows how traditional farmers usually plant the crop. Use it as a starting point, then update it for a higher yield: certified seed or clean planting material, a soil test, and the right spacing and fertilizer.
