Instructions
Step 1
Break up a vegetable garden. To grow vegetables for sale, you need to decide what kind of garden crops grow best on your soil type. To do this, take her for analysis. There you can also find out which mineral substances will help to grow large yields. Calculate the required amount of certain vegetables. Make a crop rotation.
Step 2
Work the land with a cultivator. Apply organic fertilizer. For root crops and tomatoes, it is better to make them in the fall. Also, for these crops, the autumn introduction of double superphosphate is appropriate. Under leafy ones, as well as pumpkin, cucumbers, zucchini, it is better to put organic matter before planting. Fertilize the beds with compost soil or rotted manure a week before. Purchase seeds from trusted companies; if you are planting vegetables with seedlings, buy them only from reputable nurseries. The yield depends on the quality of the planting material even more than on the preparation of the land. Observe the agricultural practices of garden crops. If there is a threat of May or June night frosts in your area, use a ground cover material.
Step 3
Carry the crop as it ripens to the nearest regional center. If you do not want to engage in sales on your own, at the collective farm markets there are specially created intermediary firms that buy the products of private farms.
Step 4
Build a poultry house. Chickens, geese, turkeys are quite easy to breed and do not require any special conditions. For ducks, a reservoir is desirable. Also, in recent years, private farms have increasingly begun to breed birds such as pheasants, pigeons, quails, guinea fowls. But if you live far from large cities with developed infrastructure, it will be difficult to find sales for them. In this case, stop at the birds familiar to Russian villages. Numerous neighbors will buy both eggs and meat from you, and the surplus, again, can be taken to the nearest regional center.
Step 5
Get a cow. This is a great way to survive in the village. As a rule, from each cow you can get about 7-8 liters of milk per day. If you make sour cream, cottage cheese or other dairy products from it, partially sell it, use the rest for food, your family will be provided with everything you need.
