Cultivation Guidelines

Planting Instructions:


  • Land Preparation:

    Ensure the soil is well-drained, and plow the land to create a fine seedbed.

  • Sowing Depth:

    Plant seeds at a depth of 2–3 cm for optimal germination.

  • Spacing:

    Maintain a spacing of 15–20 cm between plants for proper growth.

Maintenance Tips:

  • Irrigation:

    For rainfed areas, ensure good water retention. In irrigated areas, maintain consistent moisture levels to avoid water stress.

  • Fertilization:

    Apply balanced fertilizer, particularly nitrogen and potassium, to support growth.

  • Weed Control:

    Keep the field free from weeds to avoid competition for nutrients.

Harvesting Tips:

  • Harvest the crop when 80% of the grains have turned golden yellow.

  • Use manual or mechanical methods for harvesting, depending on the scale of farming.

  • Properly dry the harvested grains to reduce moisture content and prevent post-harvest losses.

  • Store the grains in a cool, dry place with proper ventilation to prevent pest infestation and spoilage.
