Source updated 2013

Irrigated cholam

Application of FYM

a. Spread 12.5 MT/ha of FYM or compost on the unploughed field, along with 10 packets of Azospirillum inoculant (2000 g)and 10 packets of Phosphobacteria (2000g) or 20 packets of Azophos (4000g)

Application of Fertilizer

Fertilizer

CO 27

  • Apply NPK fertilizer as per soil test recommendation. If soil test is not done, follow the blanket recommendation of 60 : 40 : 20 kg N, P and K /ha.
  • Apply half the dose of N and full dose P and K basally before sowing.
  • Top dressing : 30 kg N/ha on 30 days after sowing
  • For the ratoon crop, apply 30 kg N/ha immediately after the harvest and irrigate

Sowing

CO (FS) 29 (multicut variety):

  • Apply 45 : 40 : 40 kg N,P, K/ha as basal and 45 kg N as top dressing on 30 DAS followed by the application of 45 kg N/ha after every cut. After 4th cut, apply 40 kg P and 40 kg K along with 45 kg N to sustain the fodder yield and quality.
  • Application of Azospirillum (2000g/ha) and Phosphobacterium (2000g/ha) together as a mixture or Azophos (4000g/ha) along with 75% recommended dose of N and P fertilizer enhanced the yield besides saving of 25% of fertilizer dose.
  • Seed rate : CO-27 -50 kg/ha and COFS 29 – 5 kg/ha
  • Spacing : 30 x 10 -15 cm
  • Treat the seeds with 3 packets (600 g)/ha of Azospirillum and 3 packets (600g) of Phosphobacteria or Azophos 6 packets (1200g) *COFS 29 seed has one month seed dormancy.

Rainfed Cholam

Application of FYM Apply 12.5 t/ha and incorporated in the soil at the time of last ploughing.
