Good aligned sowing ensures uniform plant spacing, better access to nutrients, sunlight, and water, and reduces competition among crops. It improves field management, input efficiency, and ultimately boosts overall yield and crop quality.
One thing i have encouraged small holder farmers in the elgon region is to have all their farming stratagies be multifunctional, multifunctional agriculture has a more general goal of valuing the positive effects of ecological agric beyond food production.
