REET Level 2 study notes
Food, Crop Production and Agriculture
For REET Level 2, food and agriculture joins plant nutrition, human nutrition, crop production and classroom science teaching. Prepare the RBSE boundary through plant parts and nutrition, food components, deficiency diseases and balanced diet. For agriculture, learn the seven crop-production practices from the verified historical NCERT crop chapter: soil preparation, sowing, manure and fertilisers, irrigation, weeding, harvesting and storage. Current NCERT middle-stage science books are titled Curiosity for Grades 6, 7 and 8, so old Science Class 8 chapter names must be framed historically.
Key points
- RBSE anchors this topic through plant nutrition, food components, deficiency diseases and balanced diet.
- Current NCERT middle-stage science titles are Curiosity for Grades 6, 7 and 8.
- Use the old NCERT crop chapter only as a historical reference for the seven crop-production practices.
- Soil preparation helps roots penetrate, air enter, microbes work and nutrient-rich soil support growth.
- Sowing needs healthy seeds, correct spacing and suitable depth to avoid overcrowding.
- Manure adds humus and improves texture; fertiliser supplies particular nutrients but excess can harm soil and water.
- Irrigation depends on crop, soil and season; sprinkler and drip systems help use water economically.
- Weeding, harvesting and storage protect food after crop growth and prevent loss before use.
