Field preparation and soil treatment in water melon before sowing
  • The land should be properly prepared by ploughing  according to the need and it is advisable to make small beds simultaneously. 
  • In heavy soils, seeds should be sown without a lump. The sandy soil does not require much tillage. 3-4 ploughing  is sufficient. 
  • Watermelon requires fertilizer. For soil treatment, it should be done by using a soil samridhi kit before sowing. 
  • For this, mix 50 -100 kg FYM or cow dung with compost or field soil, and broadcast it on an empty field before sowing.
  • DAP @ 50 kg / acre + SSP @ 75 kg / acre + Potash @ 75 kg / acre broadcast at the time of sowing.

Paddy production increased to 2.5 quintal/acre after using Maxxmyco

Many products make claims to increase yield from crops, but only a few products come true on their claims. One such product is Maxxmyco of Gramophone using which many farmers have achieved good production from different crops. One of these farmers is Mr. Ratnesh Meena, a farmer of Hasalpur village of Hoshangabad district of Madhya Pradesh, who used Maxxmyco in his paddy crop.

Ratnesh ji planted paddy crop on 10 acres. He put Maxxmyco on 6 acres and not on 4 acres. The paddy crop using Maxxmyco got better growth. When the yield finally came after harvesting, the total yield on 6 acres with Maxxmyco was 96 quintals at an average of 16 quintals / acre, while the 4 acres of crops without Maxxmyco produced only 54 quintals at an average of 13.5 quintals / acre.
