"If winter does not make the earth sleep, spring does not make the farmer sleep."

"If winter does not make the earth sleep, spring does not make the farmer sleep."

Winter is almost over. In many agricultural fields of Uzbekistan, the ground did not freeze, and there were very few severely cold days. What does this condition cause?

Pests survive the winter. Cold was nature's natural filter. Insects, larvae and disease-causing agents survive in the winter when the ground does not freeze.

In the spring, they don't just wake up - they actively attack.

Weeds are early and abundant. Unfrozen ground is a favorable environment for weed seeds. That means more fighting, more herbicides, more costs.

The soil does not rest. Winter is the sleep of the earth. Freezing softens the soil, restores balance. If not, the earth will be tired in the spring.

Now begins the test for fruit trees. Trees wake up early in a warm winter. Spring frosts can cause great damage to flowers and branches.

The moisture reserve is reduced. Snow is the gold reserve of the earth. Winter is almost snowless in the valley regions. If there is no snow, the demand for water increases in the spring.

It is not for nothing that it is said that the farmer does not sleep in the spring when the earth does not sleep in winter.

If the ground does not freeze in winter -

- the problem increases - the cost increases - the risk increases

Enter spring with preparation, not hope. Because nature can delay, but not forgive.
