When a household has earned enough money on, for example, the apricot harvest, there is no need to sell last summer's lambs.
The long harvests, moreover, encroached on the time available for between-crop repairs and maintenance.
Swathed forages were sampled near the time they were swathed or harvested.
This is mainly because renewable assets such as biological resources grow over a length of time before they mature and become ready for harvesting.
Moreover, mature trees ready for harvest may be grown for historical, socioeconomic, and geographical reasons, rather than due to the management effort.
The lowest maize yield harvested in 1996/97 under sole maize was attributed to leaching and water logging due to excessive rainfall and lodging.
The effect might not appear very strong because of the scale used in the harvest series.
The same rates of fertilizer were used at planting and after harvest for both cropping cycles.
