Contest: What I would Cultivate If given a free land"

Hello everyone, I am here after receiving an invitation letter from my friend @rumaisha and I am also very interested in participating in this amazing contest.

If given a large area of ​​land, I think I would choose to plant tomatoes, tomatoes are vegetables or fruit that contain lots of vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, apart from that, tomatoes are also often used every day as a cooking ingredient, processed into chili sauce and tomatoes can also be used. It is used for beauty so the market demand is large and high, so I think tomato cultivation is a profitable business opportunity.

I chose to plant tomatoes because the method of cultivating and caring for tomatoes itself is not too difficult, it can be started easily with a small amount of capital, we can start a tomato cultivation business, apart from that the selling price of tomatoes can be said to be stable on the market so the profits obtained are also quite large. .

Apart from that, there is one of my close relatives who has been a vegetable farmer for many years with real results. I think if I think with the help and knowledge from my brother I am sure we will succeed.

The first harvest of tomatoes is usually around 60 days to 90 days after planting, depending on the variety, but in general tomatoes are harvested 90 days after planting, harvest tomatoes in stages because tomatoes do not ripen all at once and after the first harvest tomatoes can be harvested again every Once every 2-3 days.

Tomatoes are ready to harvest when the tomatoes change to red and when harvesting it is best to do it in the morning or evening because during the day the plants are still carrying out photosynthesis so the tomatoes will wilt quickly.

Disease and pest attacks can disrupt the growth of tomatoes, if tomato plants are attacked by pests the tomato plants may die.

The types of diseases that must be watched out for in tomato cultivation are fruit caterpillars, thrips aphid mites, fruit flies, white flies, wilt disease and tomatoes attacked by these pests will experience rot.

And how to control pests and diseases can be done by spraying, cleaning weeds, cleaning wild plants around tomato plants.

That's my entry for this contest, thank you to everyone who visited and read it, have a nice day I also invite my friends to take part in the Contest @ulfatulrahmah @prilly @suryanitj
