As part of the practical training and field applications program at the Faculty of Agriculture, Food, and Environment, Sana'a University, second-year students conducted a field practical application on the re-sowing (gap-filling) process in designated forage crop fields. The activity aimed to equip students with necessary technical skills for executing agricultural practices and reinforce the integration of theoretical knowledge with hands-on practice.
The practical session included inspecting cultivated fields, identifying areas where seeds failed to germinate or where plant density was low, and re-sowing seeds to replace missing plants. This process contributes to achieving uniform crop growth, increasing plant density, and ensuring optimal utilization of cultivated areas.
During the session, students learned about the agricultural significance of re-sowing as one of the essential post-germination practices used to address gaps in the field, improve plant distribution uniformity, and maintain appropriate plant density, which positively impacts the growth and productivity of forage crops.
The activity was conducted under the supervision of Eng. Ibrahim Al-Muza'il, who provided technical guidance on identifying re-sowing spots, selecting appropriate seeds, and applying proper re-planting techniques, while highlighting the importance of regular crop monitoring throughout various growth stages.
This field application forms part of a series of practical training sessions conducted by the faculty to enhance students' practical and technical capabilities, preparing qualified agricultural personnel equipped with the applied knowledge and skills needed to manage agricultural operations efficiently.
