Excessive vegetative growth in cotton crops occurs on a large scale in irrigated areas, particularly in heavy soils, due to over-application of chemical fertilizers and excess water to hybrid varieties. As a result, the rate of boll formation decreases, and there is a risk of branches breaking under the weight of the bolls. As
For all types of weeds, apply basta 15% SL herbicide at 3.3 liters per hectare diluted in 500 liters of water as a post-emergence spray. For controlling nut grass (lavhala) or broad-leaved weeds in paddy crops, spray Sathi 10 WP herbicide at 200 grams in 500 liters of water 20 to 25 days after planting,

Crop Production Technologies, General Agriculture, Kharif SeasonDuring the Kharif season, continuous rainfall leads to the persistent growth of weeds in the fields. A constant competition for water and nutrients takes place between the crop and the weeds, and this competition is most severe for 30 to 35 days after planting or germination. In rainfed areas this competition is primarily for soil

Crop Production Technologies, General Agriculture, Kharif SeasonThe mixture obtained by independently growing nitrogen-fixing, phosphorus-solubilizing, and organic matter-decomposing bacteria in a laboratory and mixing them into a suitable carrier is called ‘Biofertilizer’ or ‘Bacterial Culture’. These fertilizers provide nitrogen to the crops, dissolve phosphorus in the soil, and decompose organic matter. 1. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria: A. Azotobacter: These bacteria reside in
