Weekly Meeting with Dr Pemberton

This meeting was a group meeting with my other colleagues as opposed to the individual setting I was used to for the past meetings which was interesting to say the least. I got the opportunity to gauge where others are and the progress they made with their respective projects. Honestly speaking, I feel as though I am in a good place with my project. I enjoy this topic and I am comfortable discussing it. What I noticed some peers had issues with was understanding their project and gathering information on it. 

In general, this meeting with Dr Pemberton was brief and I was encouraged to continue posting in my log book. I will keep working on my project to the best of my ability. 

DEADLINE: FINAL DRAFT SUNDAY 31ST OCTOBER, 2021

Sustainable agricultural techniques include crop diversity, intercropping  and crop rotations.  Sustainable practises build and maintain healthy soil, manage water, minimize air, water and climate pollution as well as promote biodiversity. It also assists in controlling  pests and weeds, replenish soil nutrients , reduce the need for pesticides/herbicides and reduce tillage.

Based on this article on the ttconnect page, I can assume the machinery will have no duties fees.

Submission of First Draft to Dr Pemberton

Today I sent a rough draft of my FYP progress to my supervisor. Some calculation tables were incomplete in the report but I still submitted it to show where my thought process is at right now. I hope the work I have done so far is up to standard and I am able to complete this entire report within the deadline.
