Farmers manually remove weeds through various methods such as hand pulling, hoeing, or using handheld tools. Hand pulling involves physically uprooting weeds, while hoeing involves cutting them just below the soil surface. The best time for weed removal is generally during the early stages of crop growth when weeds are small and haven’t yet competed significantly with the crops. This minimizes the negative impact on crop yield and allows for effective weed control. Timely removal, often before weeds produce seeds, helps prevent their spread and ensures a healthier crop environment throughout the growing season.
