What I know of farming:

A down‑to‑earth handbook for anyone who works the land, this book opens with a simple promise: better soil yields better harvests. Its author admits limited formal training but balances that humility with a strong belief that ordinary farmers can boost productivity through sensible, affordable practices. Written in clear, everyday language, the guide walks readers through the basics of soil health, drainage, and the importance of treating the earth with respect.

Spanning everything from choosing a farm site and preparing fields to modern ideas about deep plowing, fertilisers, irrigation and tree‑planting, the text also touches on livestock care, hay‑making and the role of farm cooperatives. Each chapter offers practical tips that a modestly‑equipped farmer could adopt gradually, making the wealth of agricultural knowledge feel within reach rather than overwhelming. Listeners will come away with a refreshed confidence that steady, well‑informed effort can turn even humble plots into thriving, rewarding enterprises.
