Vegetable cultivation involves growing various types of vegetables for consumption. It typically starts with preparing the soil by adding compost and fertilizers to make it rich in nutrients. Farmers then plant seeds or seedlings and ensure they get enough water, sunlight, and protection from pests. Common vegetables grown include tomatoes, carrots, and lettuce. Regular care, such as weeding and watering, is necessary to ensure healthy growth. Harvesting is done once the vegetables are ripe and ready to eat. This process not only provides fresh produce but also supports local economies and promotes healthy eating.
