Abstract

Agriculture has always played a significant role in enhancing a nation's economy [1]. Man has been growing and harvesting crops since time immemorial. The primary source of income for countries that engage in agriculture and other farming sectors in the modern world is mainly agriculture and allied sectors [2]. Concerns regarding the need for food, which is expanding in lockstep with the world population, have increased because of the rise in global human populations. The world's population is hungry, and both developed and developing countries are doing everything they can to alleviate that situation.
