Basva's Farm
This chapter from NCERT Looking Around, Class 4, Chapter 14 follows Basva, a young farmer, through a full onion-growing season in his village. It shows how the field is ploughed, seeds are sown, seedlings are transplanted, weeds are removed, and the ripe crop is harvested and sold. Along the way it explains the tools used, the help of family and neighbours, the role of rain and irrigation, and how farming costs and earnings shape a farming household through the year.
