Why, when and how to add mycorrhiza in the field

  • Improve plant root growth and development
  • Increase the uptake and mobilization of phosphate in all crops
  • Increase and facilitate nutrient and translocation from the soil and root cuticle parenchyma to Xylem, Phloem, elements like nitrogen, potassium, iron, manganese, magnesium, copper, zinc, boron, sulfur and molybdenum.
  • Effective in overcoming the stress conditions like drought, disease incidence, and deficiency of nutrients.
  • Enhance product quality and increase the immune power of the crop
  • Its supplement root hair in water absorption hence prevents the reduction in crop relative water content of cells and helps to overcome drought.
  • Soil Treatment – Mix Premium mycorrhiza 4 kg per acre in 50 Kg of well-decomposed Fym/compost/vermicompost/field soil and incorporated in the soil before sowing/transplant.
  • Broadcast the above mixture in standing crop 25-30 days after sowing.

    • Spinosad 25% SC100 ml/acre or Indoxacarb @ 300 ml/acre or Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG @ 100 gm/acre Spray at fortnight intervals starting from 25 days after transplanting to control the pest.

 

  • For biological control Beauveria bassiana @ 1 kg/acre.

 

  • Note: Mix the sticker with each spray.

How to avoid adverse weather conditions in Soybean

  • In the current scenario, due to lack of rainfall or poor rains, creating a problem for newly germinated crops like soybean maize, etc.

Why use Magnesium on cotton crop

  • Magnesium plays an important role in the process of plant photosynthesis and is a key element in chlorophyll, it is one of the most important nutrients, involved in many enzyme activities and the structural stabilization of Plant Tissues. 
  • Deficiency symptoms (25-30 DAS) first appear on the lower leaves and shed prematurely, showing purplish red leaves with green veins.
  • Magnesium deficiency in soil can be arrested by applying Magnesium sulfate 9.5% @ 10 kg/acre as Basal dosage at the time of Sowing.
  • Magnesium sulfate @ 70-80 gram per acre is sprayed twice a week in order to remove the lack of magnesium deficiency in cotton crop.

Nursery Management in Chilli

The nursery is well prepared for good yield If the plant will remain healthy in the nursery, then the plant will be very strong after transplanting in the field, so take proper care of the plant in the nursery. In order to prepare good plants, gramophone advised the farmer, spray three times in the nursery, which is as follows.

  • First Spray at 12 DAS:- Thiamethoxam 25% WP 8 gm/pump + Amino acid 20 ml/pump. ( To control soil-borne pest and seedling nutrition )
  • Second Spray at 20 DAS:- Metalaxyl-M ( Mefanoxam ) 4% + Mancozeb 64% WP 30 gm/pump. ( To control soil-borne diseases like damping off )
  • Third Spray at 28 DAS:-  Thiamethoxam 25% WP 8-10 gm/pump + Humic Acid 10-15 gm/pump. ( To control soil-borne pest )

Importance of Magnesium in Plants

  • Magnesium plays an important role in the process of plant photosynthesis and is a key element in chlorophyll, it is one of the most important nutrients, involved in many enzyme activities and the structural stabilization of Plant Tissues.
  • The ideal range of magnesium in the soil is 0.5-40gm/kg, however these days soil content of magnesium is found to be at 3-25gm/kg leading to magnesium deficiency.
  • Nitrogen deficiency in the soil only intensifies the deficiency scale of available nutritional balance in the soil, thereby affecting overall crop health.
  • In the early stages can be detected on lower and older leaves. The leaf veins appear darker in color while the area between the veins attains a yellowish color.
  • Magnesium deficiency in soil can be arrested by applying Magnesium sulfate ( 9.5 %) as Basal dosage at the time of Sowing.
  • Spraying 70-80 g/acre magnesium sulfate twice at weekly intervals.

Soybean Field preparation

  • For Better Seed Germination, Soil should be well Pulverized and ploughed.
  • Deep summer ploughing once in 2-3 years or one normal summer ploughing followed by 2-3 cross harrowing are suitable for the soybean crop.
  • If the moisture content is less in the soil, with pre-sowing irrigation add 4 kg of speed compost per acre to the field and prepare it for sowing, in the last, Level the farm through leveler.
