mũmera
- plant, crop. Plant. A cultivated organism, especially a crop plant that requires nutrients, water, and care. In agricultural contexts, refers to the growing plant that needs proper nutrition, pest management, and maintenance for optimal production.
Example: Nitrogen – Nitrogen nĩyabata mũmera ũgĩkũra, no ĩngĩkĩra kihũa gĩgĩkũrũ, ũnene wa mbegũ nĩũhatĩkagwo. (Nitrogen Nitrogen is needed for good growth, but too much at later stages of crop maturity can compromise coffee berry size.); ona ningĩ kũhũra boron o ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire gũtũmaga mũmera ũgĩe na mathangũ wega ũũ atĩ mbegũ nayo igakorwo ĩrĩ na mũcamo mwega. (However, foliar sprays can provide a good, in-season top-up response, raising leaf levels such that coffee production and bean quality are maintained.); Nitrogen nĩyo nutrient ĩrĩa mũmera wa kahũa ũhũthagĩra mũno na nĩyo nutrient ya keerĩ ĩheanagwo nĩ mbegũ cia kahũa. (Nitrogen is the nutrient most extracted by the coffee plant and the nutrient of second greatest export by coffee beans); Ndúbatie gúthika múmera makíria ma 4cm tondú nocigie mímera yaku ya waru na úgúo kúnyihia magetha. (Never bury new plants deeper than 4cms, as this may stress or suffocate the plant and will bring an enormous decrease in yield.); Ní úteithagia múmera gwitíra, kúgítíra warú kúgía rangi wa grini níundu wa ríua, na gúteithia waru iciare makíria (It provides support to the plants, prevents greening of tubers by shielding them from sunlight, and encourages the development of additional tubers.); Makíría níitethagia kunyihia ria na kúreka tírí kúgía na ríera wega na úgúo múmera úgakúra wega na magetha makaingiha. (Hilling also aids in weed control and improves soil aeration, contributing to overall crop health and a successful harvest.); Mũrimũ ũyũ ũrehagwo nĩ fungus iria cikaraga tĩĩri-inĩ ona mĩmera-inĩ ĩrĩa mĩrwarũ kana mĩũmũ (The disease is caused by a fungus living in the soil and dead infected plant materials.); Micronutrients nĩhamwe na boron (Bo), copper (Cu), chlorine (Cl), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), na zinc (Zn), iria cionekaga na tũcunjĩtũnini mũno tĩĩri-inĩna mĩmera-inĩ, no itemi rĩa... (Micronutrients include boron (Bo), copper (Cu), chlorine (Cl), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), and zinc (Zn), which occur in very small amounts in both soils and plants, but their role ...); Mũrimũ ũcio ũngĩkorwo mĩmera-inĩ mĩnini, ũkoragwo ũrĩ mũũru mũno tondũ gĩtina nĩ ũnyitagwo nĩ mũrimũ ũcio na ũgathiĩ na mbere gũtherema thĩinĩ wa mũtĩ wothe. (If infection occurs in young seedlings, the disease is much more severe because the main stem becomes infected and the disease becomes systemic and moves throughout the plant.)
