Construction Method of Zero Energy Cool Chamber

18/10/2024 Friday October 18th, 2024

A rectangle pops about 165 X 115 cm by depositing bricks. A double wall of bricks is constructed with the help of soil mud on this platform. The space between 7-8 cm between the double wall of bricks is kept empty. The height of the double wall is kept up to 60-65 cm.
After this, the sieved gravel is soaked in water and filled in space between the double walls.
Constructed from pieces of bamboo, gunny or sackcloth. The length and breadth of this length are kept at par with the entire cool chamber.
The water tank is placed at a height of 4 to 5 feet with 1 pipe. The pipe is routed between double walls of bricks as well as 15–15 cm in the pipe. Holes are made in the pipe for water to fall and leak and this water keeps the sand and bricks wet.
The fruits and vegetables are kept in plastic baskets and kept in this cool chamber and the lid is placed on top.

Identify foot and mouth disease in animals by its symptoms

17/10/2024 Thursday October 17th, 2024

This disease is caused to animals by a very small virus or virus that is not visible to the naked eye. Which is called the foot and mouth virus.

Reasons for the spread of the disease:

This disease mainly spreads through direct contact with infected animal secretions and excretory fluids such as saliva, dung, milk, grain, water, grass, utensils, hands of the milker and through the air. Viruses are in large numbers in this discharge and enter the body of a healthy animal through the mouth and nose.

Symptoms of the disease:

When this disease occurs, the animal has a high fever (104-106*F). Small blisters are formed in the mouth of the sick animal mainly on the top of the tongue, inside the lips, on the gums as well as in the space between the hooves. Then gradually these blisters coalesce to form bigger blisters. When the time comes, these blisters burst and there are wounds in them. Due to blisters in the mouth, animals stop chewing and stop eating and drinking, saliva keeps falling continuously from the mouth, as well as the sound like chap-chap is also heard while running the mouth. Milk production in milch animals is reduced by up to 80%. Animals start getting weak. Even after getting healthy, the affected animal keeps on panting for months and many times for life.

Importance of Sulfur in crops

16/10/2024 Wednesday October 16th, 2024

Sulfur is helpful in increasing the percentage of protein in crops, as well as sulfur contributes to the production of chlorophyll, which causes the leaf to remain green and produce food for plants.
Sulfur increases the efficiency and availability of nitrogen.
In pulse crops, using sulfur, is helpful in making more nodules in the roots of the plants, due to which the bacteria called Rhizobium present in the roots of the plants, take the nitrogen present in the atmosphere, and make it available to the crops.
Enhances the quality of tobacco, vegetables and fodder crops.
The important use of sulfur is to increase the amount of protein and oil in oilseeds.
Sulfur increases the amount of starch in potatoes.
Sulfur is called soil reformer because it lowers the pH of the soil.

How to control termites in Rabi crops

15/10/2024 Tuesday October 15th, 2024

Termite is a polyphagous insect, which means that it attacks on all crops, termites cause a lot of damage to the roots of the plants. They also eat the stem when the infestation is high.
Crops like potato, tomato, chilli, brinjal, cauliflower, cabbage, mustard, radish, wheat etc. are the major crops that are infected by termite.
Timely management is necessary to control this pest.
Seeds should be sown after seed treatment with insecticide.
Must treat soil with biological insecticide METARHIZIUM ANISOPLIAE
Raw cow dung manure should not be used because raw dung is the staple food of this insect.
To control termites, CHLORPYRIPHOS 20 % EC @ 1 liter should be mixed with 4 kg of sand and applied to the field at the time of sowing.

Symptoms and control of yellow vein mosaic virus in okra crop

14/10/2024 Friday October 11th, 2024

It is a viral disease which spreads further due to the sucking insect present in the crop.

Symptoms: In the early stages of the disease, the veins of affected plant leaves turn yellow, but as the disease incidence increases or in the later stages of the disease, this yellowness spreads over the entire leaf and as a result, the leaves start to curl and shrink, and the growth of the plant stops. The fruits of the affected plant become pale yellow, deformed and hard.

Control: This disease is mainly spread by white fly, for its control spraying of Novaceta (Acetamiprid 20% SP) @ 30 gm per acre or Pager (Diphenthiuron 50% WP) @ 240 gm/acre in 150 to 200 litres of water.

There are many benefits of soil treatment in potato crop

13/10/2024 Friday October 11th, 2024

Soil treatment before sowing in potato crops is very important.
Soil fertility and nutrient management are very important for disease-free crops and good yields. These have a direct impact on the quality of the crop.
In the Rabi season, due to excessive moisture in the soil before the sowing of potatoes, there is a high incidence of fungal diseases and pests.
To prevent fungal diseases and pests, soil treatment is done with fungicides and insecticides.
By treating the soil with fungicides and insecticides, diseases like tuber rot do not occur in the potato crop.
Soil treatment also helps in preventing potato rot disease.
Soil treatment is also very important to overcome the deficiency of nutrients in the soil. Its main nutrients are used.
Soil treatment improves the structure of the soil and production also increases to a great extent.

Importance of consortia PK bacteria

12/10/2024 Friday October 11th, 2024

It contains a mixture of two types of bacteria i.e. phosphorus solubilizing (PSB) and potash mobilizing bacteria (KMB).
It helps in the supply of potash and phosphorus which are two major elements of soil and crop, it is used more in pulses.
This bacteria converts insoluble potash and phosphorus that is found in the soil into soluble form to provide plants.
It causes the plant to get the necessary elements in time, and the crop grows well,
Crop production increases as well as the availability of nutrients in the soil.

Weed Management in Potato Crop 1-5 Days of Sowing

11/10/2024 Friday October 11th, 2024

The potato crop is the main Rabi crop, due to excessive moisture in the soil left after the rainy season, weeds start growing in large numbers after sowing of the potato crop.
All types of weeds can be controlled by using timely and proper weedicide.
Chemical method: – In this method weed control is done using chemicals. Weed can be controlled very well by using these chemicals periodically.
1-3 days after sowing: – PENDIMETHALIN 38.7% CS @ 700 ml/acre should be sprayed 1-3 days after sowing for chemical control of weeds.
This way spraying can control the weeds that grow in the early stage of sowing.
Second spraying after sowing: – METRIBUZIN 70% WP @ 100 gm per acre 3-4 days after sowing or 5 cm of the potato plant.

Why seed treatment is necessary

10/10/2024 Thursday October 10th, 2024

Seed treatment is very important for agriculture, which prevents seed and soil borne diseases.
70 to 80 percent of the farmers of the crops in the country do not change the seeds and use only the old seeds.
Due to this, the risk of pest and disease is high, As a result the cost increases.
Only seed treatment can increase production by 6 to 10 percent.
Add after the line-The effect of insecticides also increases with seed treatment and the crop becomes safe for 20 to 25 days.

Improves soil water level by increasing the water holding capacity of the soil.
The roots of plants grow well, plants uptake more of the nutrients.
Increases the amount of organic matter in the soil and the alkali exchange capacity of the soil.
The number of beneficial bacteria in the soil increases. Due to this, the yield of the crop is very good.
FYM helps in converting complex compounds into simple compounds.
Prevents soil erosion by increasing the cohesion of soil particles.
Nitrogen 0.5%, Phosphorus 0.25% and Potash 0.5% are found in this.
