Laddering

Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-003228

A technique in agricultural planting where crops are sown or planted in staggered intervals rather than all at once. This practice extends the harvest period for a single crop type, allowing for a more consistent supply to market or for personal consumption. It also distributes labor requirements over a longer timeframe, reducing peak workload demands.
