How do farmers choose what crops to grow? Do they just plant anything they want, or is there a specific reason behind their choices? And what if the weather gets really bad? Does that ruin everything for them?

The question of giving mobile phones to children depends entirely on the user. Some children are smart enough to make the best out of it, while those without supervision can be exposed to the worst side of mobile phones. There is no doubt that smartphones have innumerable benefits, but their use should be approached with caution and mindful regulations.
Today’s technology plays a significant role in ensuring the safety of children by establishing security. Parents can know what their children are doing even when they are not with them. Also, smartphones provide children with the best learning opportunities. It makes learning fun for them through interactive and engaging content. Rideout et al. [2010] discuss how digital educational apps make education interactive and engaging for children. Smartphones allow children to choose their mentors.
However, there are several drawbacks to using smartphones without restrictions. Exposing children to smartphones at an early age can lead them not to use their intelligence. They become fully dependent on their phones, which restricts their potential. Early exposure makes them lazy and less creative. Excessive screen time leads to many health problems. Digital devices also hinder the development of their social life as they get used to interacting with people behind a screen. Children nowadays prefer to play video games instead of outdoor games, which makes them less productive and unhealthy. They are exposed to inappropriate content and cyberbullying, which is very common among the young generation.
In conclusion, I believe that smartphones have both advantages and disadvantages. To reduce the negative effects, parents should monitor their children, check on them occasionally, limit screen time, and encourage a balance of activities. They should also teach children about the negative effects of smartphones and the importance of digital privacy. This way, children can benefit from phones without being adversely affected by them.

Deciding the crop
The decision of what crops to grow is made by farmers with a number of factors in mind. These include soil type, climate, water availability, market demand and the knowledge that they have towards it. Before deciding on what crop should be grown by them first they examine the suitability of their soils and climates for this purpose. For instance, different crops are required to have specific soil pH levels, moisture conditions and temperatures for them to do well. In addition to these aspects, farmers also consider the reliability and availability of water sources as some crops which require high quantity of water may not be feasible in drought prone areas. Among others, market demand becomes a key factor as majority of farmers grow local high demand crops or those that can fetch them profits when sold at a good price. They also use crop rotation practices and other methods so as to maintain their soil health in check hence making their decisions.
Handling Bad weather
Bad weather can be managed through preparedness, diversification and adaptive measures as strategies used by farmers. Farmers usually consult weather forecasts when scheduling their activities such as planting or harvesting times. By growing a variety of crops on their farms during bad weather conditions, they can avoid dependence on one food source thereby reducing risks associated with unfavorable climatic shocks especially during planting seasons. This makes irrigation necessary for managing drought-prone areas while drainage systems prevent flooding from occurring due too much rainwater entering into farmlands through these fields are low-lying topographically terrain wise.Farmers should also go for strong types of plants like onions, garlic since they can handle long dry climate better than ordinary plants that are not bred to survive severe environmental conditions such as prolonged droughts or floods
