Nursery Bed

Definition: nursery bed

nursery bed: a bed in which seedlings are planted out from the seedbed until they are large enough to be put in permanent positions. Nursery beds provide a controlled environment for young plants to grow and develop before being transplanted to their final locations. Farmers can benefit from using nursery beds to ensure healthy and vigorous seedlings, improve transplant success rates, and optimize crop production. Proper management of nursery beds, including soil preparation, irrigation, and pest control, supports effective plant propagation and enhances overall farm productivity.
