Abstract

Sangam literature is a repository of Tamil culture. Literature has divided the way of life of the people of the Sangam into two parts, love and heroism, and has led them to know the life and development of the people of that time with their social background. What helped man greatly to attain civilization in such a life were the various occupations in which he little by little learned. Among them, it must be said that the agricultural industry has greatly contributed to the development of civilization. The use of technology, such as researching the farming industry and technology in agriculture, as well as in the Sangam literature techniques include a variety of tasks such as plowing, irrigating, seeding, transplanting, cultivating, weeding, crop protection, fertilising, harvesting, crop rotation, transplanting, cropping, and many more are also explained.
