Method of propagation - SS1 Agriculture Lesson Note

Groundnut (Peanut): Groundnut is typically propagated through seeds. Farmers select healthy seeds from previous crops or purchase certified seeds. These seeds are sown directly in the field at the recommended spacing and depth. Groundnut plants are self-pollinating, meaning they have both male and female flowers on the same plant, which aids in the pollination process.

 

Cowpea: Cowpea can also be propagated through seeds. Farmers sow cowpea seeds directly into the soil. It's important to choose high-quality seeds to ensure healthy plant development. Cowpea is a self-pollinating plant as well.
