Abstract

The agricultural sector contributed 4% towards the national economy and is expanding rapidly in parallel to the present technological advancement.Therefore,great emphasis have been made on several aspects of the means to increase the quality of the agricultural produce for export purpose.The rate of overall temperature is very important towards the growth of the plants since it has a direct impact towards the fertility of the plants and will also result in a higher quality agricultural produce.Moreover,the overall temperature is also very important towards the production of a consistent agricultural produce and according to schedule.Apart from the overall temperature,soil humidity is also another important aspect in agriculture.In the agricultural sector,the of growth of the roots of the plants will determine the plants ready to be harvested according to its respective seasons.If the humidity is too dry for the plants,the growth and elongation of the roots in the search for the source of water,while the humidity or source of water differs from one location to another.All these will result in an overall slower growth rate of the plants,hence affecting the schedule for harvesting the agricultural produce.Vegetables are amongst that vegetation that requires temperature control as well as the right soil humidity.Since the vegetable produce is for human consumption,it is very important to ensure their quality.Vegetable produce that are especially meant for export purposes must be of highest quality and have longer shelf span.The rate of overall temperature required for vegetable to grow well is around 27°C and soil humidity at a rate of below 700.If these parameters can be taken care and well controlled,these will enable the vegetation to be fertile and grow well and will bear vegetable produce of the highest quality.
