Recommendations for organic farming in gram crop

  • Cultivation of gram is done more in dry and fewer water areas. Therefore, organic gram production can also be done easily. The following suggestions can be adopted for organic farming –

  • Plough the land deeply in summer.

  • Mix 4-ton farmyard manure and 2.5 kg Trichoderma in 100 kg vermicompost and mix it in the soil before sowing.

  • Treat the seed with Rhizobium 5 gm/ kg seeds + PSB 2 gm +Trichoderma 5 gm / kg seeds. 

  • Cow urine 5 litres + 5 kg of neem leaves extract or NPV 250 LE or two sprays of neem nimboli extract at the onset of pod borer pest and repeat the second spray after 15 days.

  • Apply 20-25 splints per acre of “T” shape in the field. It is beneficial to put these splints 10 – 20 cm higher than the height of the gram. Friendly insects like birds, myna, heron etc. come and sit on these splints, which eat the pod borer and save the crop from damage.

  • Do not use raw manure or cow dung, it is the main cause of termite outbreaks.

  • Use Metarhizium or Bavaria bassiana fungus at the time of sowing to protect the cutworms.

Nutrition management in okra at the time of sowing

  • Nutrition management gives the okra crop a good head start.

  • Germination percentage can be increased to a great extent.

  • This results in better vegetative growth and also improves plant health.

  • It promotes growth in every stage of the plant-like flowering, fruiting, leaf etc. as well as the growth of the white roots.
