Answer 2

Prepared for harvest.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the italicized phrase it meant prepared for harvesting. When an area of land is cultivated, that it seeds has been planted or sown and it normal agronomic practices as been carried out on it, after some times the plants and matured and it is then been harvested. From the phrase, since the land has already been cultivated, the person is preparing to harvest the cultivated land or crops planted. Harvest set in after cultivation.
