Corn and Bean Plots Discussion
Corn plot does not look good. There has been a germination failure and the spacing is wider than recommended. Planting was done January 10, 2012. This is late planting. Students have been in Vacation in December the time we instruct them to plant corn. Beans will be planted this month. We told them the importance of following instructions and good management in the demonstration plots
Conclusion
There should be improvement in the management of the demonstration plots. We advised the Headmistress to appoint one administrative personnel who will be responsible in supervising and manage the demonstration plots.
