Abstract
Crop yields depend on good and proper crop management. In crop management, several things need attention. It can be divided into two major groups: Management of Natural Resource and Human Resources. The management of natural resources includes the supply of planting material; production facilities: seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides; environmental factors: soil, water, air, germplasm preservation of plants that have superior, rare and specific character; policies on crop protection; and the joint commitment of all countries in the world to work together, maintain, care for and preserve plants that aim to fulfil the needs of human life. Striving to make human resources who can work professionally and have confidence that what is done will produce satisfying results. This requires technology, agricultural tools, effective and efficient pest control models, good cultivation techniques, and government policies and regulations that can protect agricultural growth, development, and yield.
