Advisory related to Maize and Rice for the upcoming days

MAIZE- Taking advantage of rain in the previous week, field preparation for maize is advised. Before ploughing, Spread 12.5 t/ha of FYM or compost evenly on the field, preferably along with 10 packets of Azospirillum (2000 g/ha) and incorporate in the soil. Arrange healthy seeds from certified agencies.

RICE- The late sown crop is now in maturity and harvesting stage. As sunny weather forecasted in most of the places, farmers are advised to complete harvesting of mature crops. Harvesting must be done during morning hours so that crop may be dried before shifting to shed. Drain out the water from the field to hasten maturity.
