Importance of Nitrogen for plants

Importance of Nitrogen for plants

Nitrogen is an important source of proteins. Nitrogen is an important part of chlorophyll which is essential for photosynthesis. Nitrogen increases the vegetative growth of the plant and provides dark green color. Nitrogen increases the initial growth of the plant.

Possibilities of nitrogen deficiency in the soil: –

  • Soils with low levels of organic carbon.

  • In light textured sandy soils that are highly eroded by rainfall or irrigation.

  • In an intensive farming system of cereal crops.

  • In waterlogged condition.

Symptoms of Nitrogen Deficiency in Plants:-

Appear on older leaves of the plant. The growth of nitrogen deficient plants is stunted, and the plants appear thin and small in size. In cereal crops, the tillers are reduced to a great extent. The leaves start turning yellow from the tip. These effects are first visible on old leaves, then later on young leaves also appear.

Management of Nitrogen: –

Get soil test done to ensure the availability of nitrogen in the soil.  On the basis of the test, apply recommended nitrogen at the time of sowing with the help of manure and organic fertilizers. Broadcast urea as per requirement in the standing crop.

Nutrient Management in Maize

Nutrient Management in Maize

Maize is primarily a kharif season crop, but due to its growing demand in the market and availability of all-weather varieties, it is now being cultivated in all three seasons.

Nutrient management in crops varies according to season, climate and variety. Apart from this, it is necessary to do nutrient management in the crop on the basis of the soil test. Mix 5 tons of well-composted farmyard manure per acre at the time of field preparation about 10 -15 days before sowing in maize. At the time of soil preparation, apply 50 kg DAP, 50 kg Muriate of Potash, Gromor (Sulphur 90% WG) @ 3 kg per acre in the field.

Zinc is an important nutrient for high production in maize. To fulfill this, use 3-4 kg of zinc per acre.

Keep this in mind! Do not use zinc with any type of phosphorus-containing fertilizer. It reduces the availability of zinc in the crop.

On the other hand, when there is a deficiency of Boron in the soil, the application of 500 grams of Boron per acre is sufficient for the field.

How to do nutrition management in cotton and know its benefits

How to do nutrition management in cotton and know its benefits
  • Cotton crop is the main crop of Kharif and this crop is very expensive, so it is very important to get a good yield, for good yield, it is very necessary to do fertilizer or nutrition management in the cotton crop.

  • Nutritional management in cotton is done at 40-45 days after sowing or in the second growth stage after germination, for this the following products are used

  • Apply urea @ 40 kg/acre + MOP @ 30 kg/ acre + magnesium sulphate @ 10 kg/ acre.

  • Urea: Urea is the biggest source of nitrogen supply in cotton crop, its use does not cause problems like yellowing and drying of leaves, urea accelerates the process of photosynthesis.

  • MOP (Potash): Potash is an essential nutrient for cotton. Potash plays a very important role in transporting the synthesized sugars in all parts of the cotton plant. Potash promotes the efficiency of natural nitrogen.

  • Magnesium Sulphate: Application of Magnesium Sulphate in cotton crop increases greenery in cotton crop and accelerates the process of photosynthesis, ultimately leading to higher yield and quality of crop

How to do plant treatment in chilli nursery and its benefits

How to do plant treatment in chilli nursery and its benefits
  • As all farmers know that the chilli crop is sown in the nursery after completion of chilli stage in the nursery, chilli is transplanted in the main field.

  • Planting method of chilli seedlings: After 35 to 40 days of sowing, the chilli plant is ready for transplanting. The appropriate planting time is from mid-June to mid-July. Before transplanting, light irrigation should be done in the nursery. By doing this the root of the plant does not damage, the growth is good and the plant gets planted easily. After removing the plant from the field, it should not be kept directly in the sun.

  • Seedling treatment: It is very important to treat the chilli seedlings before transplanting  from the nursery to the field. Therefore, for the good growth of roots, make a solution of 5 grams of mycorrhiza in one liter of water. After this, the roots of chili plants should be dipped into the solution for 10 minutes. Planting should be done in the field only after adopting this process. Light irrigation should be given to the field immediately after transplanting. The distance from the row to row chili   should be 60 cm and the distance from plant to plant should be 45 cm.

  • Treating plants with mycorrhiza does not cause problems such as plant rotting and helps chilli plants grow well after transplanting to the main field.
