A farmer grows disease-free and advanced chilli crop on the advice of Gramophone

08/05/2020Posted on

The most important requirement for farming is the soil, hence the healthy soil is very important to get good production from any crop. Understanding this fact, Mr. Jitendra Yadav, a farmer of Kharda village under Gogawan tehsil of Khargone district, understood. Jeetendra used Gramophone Soil Samriddhi Kit in his field before chilli cultivation which has also benefited him a lot.

In the Nimar region of Madhya Pradesh, chilli crops usually start in June-July, but Jeetendra started chilli farming in December, which would be called off-season according to that region. In such a situation, the crop is more likely to get diseases, but the opposite happened. However, about 3 months after the sowing of the crop, when the Team Gramophone reached his fields to meet him, Jeetendra looked excited.

Jitendra said that his 50-day old chilli crop is disease-free and healthy. He was very excited to explain the reason behind this. He said that “I had used Gramophone’s Soil Samriddhi Kit before sowing the crop in my field which resulted in this disease-free and healthy crop.”

It is important to note that using Gramophone’s Soil Samriddhi Kit increases the fertility of the fields and the crop does not require any other external nutrients, so Jitendra’s crop was also healthy and did not have any disease. Jeetendra told that he is expecting good production from his crop this time.

Like Jitendra, if other farmers are thinking of cultivating chilli, then they can cultivate summer chilli crop. Sowing for this occurs in March and April. For any type of information related to chilli cultivation or Soil Samriddhi Kit, give a missed call on toll-free number 18003157566.
