Checkrowing

/ˈtʃɛkˌroʊɪŋ/ verb

Etymology

From 'checkrow' with the progressive suffix '-ing'. This gerund describes the agricultural practice of organized systematic planting.

Kelly Says

Checkrowing requires precision, and farmers who mastered this technique could produce dramatically more food from the same land, which is why agricultural innovation has historically been one of humanity's most transformative technologies.
