Rajgarh-Phulgaondi (Naiduniya News). Most of the farmers have taken out the wheat and pea crops. In such a situation, instead of leaving the fields empty, farmers have started sowing soybeans from now on. Soybean has been sown in the surrounding area including Phulgaondi and the plants have also come out of the ground.
Actually, the reasoning behind this is that the soybean crop sown in the rainy season is more prone to diseases. At the same time, production is also affected, whereas its quantity is less in soybean sown in summer. Instead of rain, the summer crop is ripe and ready 15 days earlier. Therefore, instead of leaving the fields empty, the farmers prepared the soybeans for sowing. It is worth noting that earlier only very few people used to sow soybean in summer, but now gradually this trend has changed.
Raised mind from green coriander, now betting in soybean
Farmers say that earlier they were cultivating green coriander after harvesting wheat, but due to high cost and no place for the price, now they are planting soybean crop. Soyabean has now been sown in the hope of getting good profits. It is being told that only those farmers are doing sowing, who have enough water for irrigation even during the summer days. Many farmers are also cultivating soybean with modern method and drip method.
Farmers get double benefit
Farmers say that the soybean crop is sown in summer and gets ready before the rains start. In such a situation, there is not much difficulty in preparing the field for wheat and gram by cutting soybeans. Actually, early ripening soybean is sown so that it can be harvested on time.
Mosquitoes instead of caterpillars
Farmers Rajaram Patidar, Harishankar Patidar, Mukesh Gehlot etc. said that the outbreak of caterpillars is limited in taking summer crop in soybean, but the outbreak of mosquitoes is more visible in soybean, due to which the risk of virus-borne diseases increasing is more. lives. In the areas around Bheru Chowki, Undeli, Bandikhali and Rajgarh, farmers have now started taking soybean crop in summer.
may have to buy medicine
Nirmal Prasad, a seller of agricultural medicines, said that for the first time in the summer, the sale of herbicides is increasing in soybeans. During summer, we have limited stock of weed killers, but if the demand increases, we may have to buy more medicines.
Manage irrigation-medicine properly
Soyabean crop sown in summer is more prone to virus-borne yellow mosaic disease and the outbreak of sucking insects is also more. Farmers should make proper management of irrigation and medicine from time to time, so that production is not affected. In the summer, the interest of farmers towards soybean cultivation has increased, which is a good thing. -BS Mandloi, Senior Agriculture Development Officer Sardarpur
