Education extends its resources and looks for varied ways to cater to your needs and to adapt
to the new system of Education as a fortress of the Learning Continuity Plan. One of the
probable solutions is the use of Teacher-made Educational Modules in teaching.

You are reading the Agricultural Crop Production - Grade 9: First Quarter

2.0
Alternative Delivery Mode (ADM) Module on “Materials, Tools, and Equipment for
Agronomic/ Horticultural Crop Work According to Job Requirements” as written and

ON
found in the K-12 Most Essential Learning Competencies.

The creation of this module is a combined effort of competent educators from different

SI
levels and various schools of the Department of Education-Cebu Province. In addition, this

FARM TOOLS IN AGRICULTURAL CROP PRODUCTION


T

Farm tools, implements, and equipment play a very important role in agricultural crop
1S

production. Their availability makes the work much easier and faster. However, even if one
may have the most sophisticated tools and implements, but does not know how to use them,
they are useless. To do crop production operations successfully, one must have a good
working knowledge of the tools, implements, and equipment before using them.
