Saffron cultivation will make you rich, take care of these things

09/06/2022Posted on

The saffron plant is one of the most expensive spices in the world. It is also called ‘red gold’ because of the price of saffron. Due to this, the cultivation of saffron is considered a profitable crop. By cultivating it, farmers can earn lakhs every year.

It is cultivated in India, especially in Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal. By the way, the cultivation of saffron can be done at an altitude of 3000 meters above sea level. However, now farmers are also cultivating saffron in states like Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Haryana.

Suitable soil and climate for the cultivation of saffron

Its crop cycle is of 3 to 4 months. The months of June to September are considered good for farming. For this, it is necessary to have sandy, loamy or loamy soil. This crop does not grow in heavy clay soils.

Along with this, good sunlight is needed for the crop of saffron. The saffron crop gets spoiled in the extreme cold and rainy seasons. That is, for the cultivation of saffron, choose a place where there is no stagnation of water.

Farmers will get subsidy for agricultural machinery, know when the list will be released

09/06/2022Posted on

Agricultural machines have made farming farming very easy. However, not all farmers are able to buy these machines due to financial difficulties. In such a situation, the central and state governments are running many schemes to increase their availability to the farmers. In many states, agricultural machines are provided to eligible farmers on subsidy.

In this sequence, the Madhya Pradesh government had recently announced to provide agricultural machinery to the farmers of the state for sowing. Under this, rotavator, reversible plow, seed drill and seed cum fertilizer drill were to be provided. At the same time, the beneficiaries had to apply for this scheme from 25 May to 6 June 2022.

But due to the Panchayat elections in the state, the model code of conduct came into force from May 28. Due to this, it has taken some time to release the list of selected farmers. Now the list of selected farmers will be issued only after the code of conduct is removed i.e. after July 15, 2022. Which you will be able to see on the lottery e-Krishi Yantra Grant portal https://dbt.mpdage.org/Eng_Index.aspx.

Nutrients are getting depleted from the soil due to these reasons

08/06/2022Posted on

Agriculture is the only business in India which has been going on for centuries. In this growing era of modernity, many changes have taken place in the agriculture sector. Chemical fertilizers and low-cost formulas are being adopted to get more productivity and profits in less time. Due to this, the soil is gradually becoming weak from inside.

Apart from this, due to global warming, there has been a lot of change in the behaviour of the weather. Due to this, there have been floods and some droughts have been seen. Where about 80% of the farmers of the country depend on rain, due to this the most impact of the weather has been on the agriculture sector. In such a situation, to get the benefit, the farmers make many mistakes during the cultivation, which affects the yield potential of the soil.

The reason for the depletion of nutrients from the soil

  • The first reason for this is not to use cow dung, green manure or vermicompost in crops.

  • Indiscriminate application of fertilizers without soil testing

  • not cultivating according to crop rotation

  • cultivating a consistently high yielding crop

  • using saline water for irrigation

  • Deep ploughing, leads to depletion of zinc, sulfur and nitrogen in the soil

  • Do not close the weeds of the fields, due to which the nutrients of the soil are also washed away along with the water

According to government data, this situation has been seen more in the states like Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. If these mistakes are not rectified, it will be difficult to stop the land from becoming barren.
