Parameters For Crops - A Data Oriented Complete Guide - Work in Progres

In our Agriculture for Everybody blog series, we are going to see a Data Oriented Complete Guide for Parameters in Crops.


We have introduced many parameters (criteria or filter) in the previous blogs.  Some of the parameters were introduced as the very basis for selecting the crops while some of them were introduced as information.  While some of the parameters many not be even covered by the blog, but may be important as well.

To consolidate the information covered and to provide the parameters as a data, I have compiled this template as a starting point for farmers to filter the crops based on their needs.

Note: Request readers to help update the parameters of the crops and let me know of any other parameters.

Notes:

• ST/MT/LT (age) stands for Short Term Crops(ST), Medium Term Crops(MT), Long Term Crops(LT), (age) stands for the economical lifetime of the crops
• SSH/MSH stands for Single Season Harvest Crops(SSH),  Multiple Season Harvest Crops (MSH)
• SH/MH stands for Single Harvest(SH), Multiple Harvest(MH)
• SC (%) stands for Shade Crops.  This will help us to grow shade crops once the main crops are grown. (%) stands for percentage of shade required
• Anything that starts with WIP* means Work In Progress. The same will be updated in a future date once the information is available

• I have NOT considered Food Crops v/s Cash Crops, Localized, Naturalized v/s Exotic Crops, Import v/s Export Crops, Shelf Life Crops etc
