Timeframe
A. Introduction Day 1 In understanding the materials needed in the farm, the following farm
(1 hour) inputs should be considered to measure and estimate properly.

We need to properly consider the estimation of farm inputs because…..

Farm labor requires estimation of time and effort in accordance with

proper procedures. To know the proper estimated labor work force before,
during and after planting, the arrangements of work process should be
aligned accordingly.

In doing farm labor processes, we should always ask on the expert’s

advice on how we can manage the time and effort in taking care of our
plant from prescribed materials needed on the preparation, to the
everyday plant care routine up to the harvesting time.
