Must Use of decomposer before sowing cotton

05/05/2022Posted on
decomposer before sowing cotton

  • 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.
