Farm Basic Workshop:
Our young enthusiastic Kairosians (Grade 3-5 students) got the opportunity to have a hands-on experience and knowledge on fundamental farming practices and animal husbandry. The activities included Domestic Animal Petting and Feeding where students interacted with and learned about the care and management of domestic animals such as cows, goats, sheep, and chickens. They understood the importance of proper feeding, shelter, and health management. Students also learnt alot of new things like
Paddy Transplantation
Demonstrations and practical sessions were conducted on paddy transplantation, highlighting optimal spacing, soil preparation, and water management techniques.
Learning something theoretically does have its importance, but enhancing knowledge through practicle learning leaves an ever- lasting impact on students. Here also they practically learnt about different sowing methods, including broadcast, row, and drip irrigation. They practiced sowing various crops, understanding seed depth, spacing, and soil requirements. They have read about Seed Testing and today a hands-on training was provided on seed testing techniques, including viability tests, germination tests, and seed quality assessment.
The outcomes of today’s field trip enhanced understanding of farm management practices, practical skills in animal care and crop cultivation, knowledge sharing among participants, increased awareness of sustainable farming methods.
The workshop empowered participants with essential skills and knowledge, fostering a stronger connection with farming practices and promoting sustainable agriculture.
