Appropriate time and precautions for harvesting wheat crop

03/03/2025Posted on
Appropriate time and precautions for harvesting wheat crop

In wheat crops, usually, the leaves start drying up at the time of ripening, sometimes one or two leaves may remain green and the lower part of the ear becomes golden. Also, if the grain is pressed with the thumb, milk does not come out and the grain becomes hard. Apart from this, when 25-30% moisture remains in the grains, then the crop may be harvested.

The crop should be harvested immediately after ripening, because late harvesting may lead to grain shedding in some varieties, also rats and birds can cause damage. Sometimes delay in cutting also affects the quality of wheat grain. If harvesting is not done in time, then the yield can also reduce, Because 5-10% of grains are lost due to shedding, eating by birds and rats and bad weather.

In wheat crops, before harvesting irrigation should be stopped Also it is very important to protect the crop from falling. After harvesting the bundle should be dried in the sun for 4-5 days because if the soil is mixed in with the grains at the time of harvesting the quality of produce will be affected.

Molybdenum element is essential in the crop of green and black gram

02/03/2025Posted on
Molybdenum element is essential in the crop of green and black gram

  • Molybdenum is essential for the process of symbiotic nitrogen fixation by Rhizobium bacteria in the root nodules of pulses.

  • Molybdenum is a micronutrient that green gram and black gram crops require in very small amounts.

  • But its small quantity is also very important for the good growth of the green gram and black gram crop.

  • Molybdenum plays a very important role in chemical changes in nitrogen in green gram and black gram crops.

  • It enhances the disease resistance of plants, as well as helps in the synthesis of vitamin C and sugar in plants.

  • Due to the deficiency of Molybdenum, the crop does not develop properly.

  • Yellowing occurs on the edges of the leaves, new leaves start drying. In general, the symptoms of molybdenum deficiency are similar to those of nitrogen deficiency.

Burning crop residue is dangerous

01/03/2025Posted on
Burning crop residue is dangerous

  • The micro-organisms and earthworms present in the soil are destroyed by burning crop residues, due to which there is an adverse effect on the fertility of the field and the physical condition of the land and chemical reactions. The land becomes hard, due to which the water holding capacity of the ground also decreases.

  • Burning of crop residue is fatal, to avoid this, farmers can use the following agricultural machines –

  • Use a straw reaper with a combined harvester, this helps in harvesting as well as collecting straw.

  • Reaper cum binder eliminates the crop residue from the root.

  • Super Seeder and Happy Seeder – After harvesting with this device, if there is moisture, then sowing can also be done.

  • Sowing can be done even at the crop residues stage with zero tillage seed cum fertilizer drill.

Uses of the biological insecticide Metarhizium anisopliae

28/02/2025Posted on
Uses of the biological insecticide Metarhizium anisopliae

Metarhizium anisopliae is a fungus-based organic insecticide. It is found freely in the soil and it is commonly found as a parasite in insects. 

When the spores of Metarhizium anisopliae come in contact with the target insect, they attach to their covering and Spores germinate when there is proper temperature and humidity. Their germinal tubes enter the insect’s body through the respiratory holes (spiracles), sensory organs and other soft parts.

This fungus increases itself by absorbing the physical food substances of the insect by making a fungal trap in the entire body of the insect. Metarhizium anisopliae produces spores even at less than 50% moisture. Because of this it works in all circumstances.

Metarhizium anisopliae is used for the control of beetles, white grubs, termites, caterpillars, semi-loopers, cutworms, mealybugs and aphids.

Method of use:

  • For soil application, Metarhizium anisopliae at the rate of 1 kg per acre mixed with about 75 kg of farm yard manure and should be used at the time of last ploughing.

  • For pest control in standing crops spray 1 kg per acre in 400-500 litres of water.
