Dear
readers,
As
promised, I am writing here last 8 year journey. Starting from my loved one cow
based organic farming
Cow based
farming : Earlier in year 2014, I have try Jivamrut based organic farming (desi
cow based) with my friend Darshan with limited knowledge and research in almost
half acre land area for one season only. We sow wheat and quantity wise result
was very much low but quality wise it was good. Now in year 2020-21, I alone
done 12 acre cow based farming with 2 bullocks, 1 cow, 1 calf and one partner
family of 6. Dr K R Shroff foundation where I am working has given full support
in this venture. We sow 22+ crops in two
consecutive season ranging from vegetables to cereals, roots to beans etc.
Finalized blueprint for full proof farming in coming year from seed treatment
to harvest from ground experiences. Primary thing is to rejuvenate soil, then
second one is good seeds, placing the seeds.
There were
so many experiences ranging from manpower to crop rotation, what comes first,
importance of planning-timely execution, harvesting etc. One can contact me for
any kind of help required for cow based organic farming (9727793291).
Final lesson
learnt:
Soil
preparation: SRT farming method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBKrQV6aPi4
, then adding Agnihotra ash into the soil as much possible.
Fertilizer
: Gaukrupa amrutam, make compost first with more amrutam , CVR mix soil spray ,
Milk+ jiggery spray, Tarachand belji technique preparations, rishi krishi.
Pesticides:
