वर्मीकंपोस्टिंग अनवरत या सतत खेती के लिए एक पारिस्थितिकी-अनुकूल दृष्टिकोण Vermicomposting is a modified and specialised method of composting - the process uses earthworms to eat and digest farm wastes and turn out high quality compost in two months or less. Vermicompost is not a biofertiliser as is touted by some, merely improved compost.  Vermicompost can also be used to make compost tea. Vermicompost tea is useful as a prophylactic against pests and diseases, for pest repelling and as a foliar spray. A by-product of vermicomposting called vermiwash (which can be collected if there is a tap at the base of the vermicompost tank) also serves the same purpose.An important point to...

हरी खाद धान के कि‍सानों के लि‍ए वरदान है  Every farmer knows how much work goes into the production of a basket of compost and carrying it to the fields. But it never seems that the farm production gives an equal return for the hard work that goes into making and carrying the compost. Green manures are a method of replacing that basket of compost with a handful of seed. In this method, the plants that grow from the handful of seed are ploughed back into the soil. After a while in the soil, the plants rot down to become compost. Plants used in this way are called Green Manures. It's a...

जैव उर्वरक : रासायनिक उर्वरकों को बदलने का पर्यावरण हितैषी तरीका Increasing use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture make country self dependent in food production but it deteriorate environment and cause harmful impacts on living beings. Due to insufficient uptake of these fertilizers by plants results, fertilizers reaches into water bodies through rain water, causes eutrophication in water bodies and affect living beings including growth inhabiting micro organism. The excess uses of chemical fertilizers in agriculture are costly and also have various adverse effects on soils i.e. depletes water holding capacity, soil fertility and disparity in soil nutrients. It was felt from a long time to develop some low cost effective...

टिकाऊ खेती में बायोफर्टीलाइजर एक कम लागत का फायदे वाला नि‍वेश  Biofertilizers are low cost, renewable sources of plant nutrients which supplements chemical fertilizers. These are nothing but selected or specific strains of beneficial soil microorganisms cultured in the laboratory and packed in a suitable carrier. They can be used either for seed treatment or soil application or liquid form. Biofertilizers generate plant nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorous through their activities in the soil or Rhizosphere and make available to plants in a gradual manner. The side effects of indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers in agriculture can be summarized as disturbances in the soil reaction, development of nutrient imbalances in plants, increased susceptibility...
