Must Use of decomposer before sowing cotton

05/05/2022 Thursday May 5th, 2022

Decomposer is a type of biofertilizer that also acts as a fertility enhancer in the soil.
It should also be used when the crop has been harvested from the field.
Farmers should use the powder form of decomposer @ 4 kg per acre with field soil or cow dung.
By maintaining a small amount of moisture in the field, you can sow the cotton crop after 10 to 15 days of broadcast.
Since these microorganisms work to convert the residue of old crops into manure, their digestion process changes from anaerobic to aerobic, Which destroys pathogenic and harmful organisms.
Through biological enrichment and the synergistic action of enzymatic catalysis, chronic residues are converted into healthy, rich, nutrient-balanced fertilizers.

Soil treatment is necessary for chilli nursery

05/05/2022

Sowing chilli seeds after treating the soil in the nursery makes chilli seedlings very good and disease-free.
For soil treatment use 10 kg FYM,1 kg DAP and Maxxroot 50 gm per square meter.
To protect the bed from ants and termites, use Carbofuran @ 15 gm per bed, after that sow the seeds.

Do these important agricultural work in the first fortnight of May

03/05/2022 Tuesday May 3rd, 2022

The first fortnight of May is the time for harvesting rabi crops, monitoring Zaid crops, and soil testing for farmers who leave their fields empty at this time, and do many other protective agricultural activities. Today, through this article, we tell you what farmers should do and what not to do in the first fortnight of May-
The proper time for sowing tomato, chilli and other vegetable nurseries is 10-30 May. For nursery preparation, select improved varieties according to your area.
Leave the field open by ploughing the field deeply, so that the pests, pupae present in the soil, and their eggs, weeds and pathogens that spread fungal diseases are destroyed.
If the field is empty this month, then get the soil tested. Soil testing measures soil pH, electrical conductivity, organic carbon as well as major and micronutrient deficiencies, which can be improved over time.
For cotton cultivation, deep ploughing and harrowing should be done 3-4 times so that the water holding capacity increases with the friable soil. By doing this, harmful insects present in the soil, their eggs, pupa and spores of fungi will also be destroyed.
The farmers, who have zaid crops like moong, cucurbits etc. in their fields, should keep monitoring the field from time to time and adopt appropriate crop protection measures as per the requirement.

The white powder appears on the leaves and other green parts, which later become light-coloured white spots. These spots gradually increase in size and become spherical, covering the lower surface as well.
In severe infection, the foliage turns yellow causing premature leaf loss. Disease infected plants undergo early maturation resulting in heavy yield loss.
Spray Hexaconazole 5% SC [Novacone] 400 ml or Myclobutanil 10% WP [Index] @ 100 gm or Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% w/w SC [Custodia] @ 300 ml / acre in 200 litres of water at an interval of fifteen days.
