Soil and Land Preparation
  1. Plough the field 2 to 3 times to get fine tilth. Before the final ploughing apply adequate amount of FYM.
  2. Remove the crop stubbles and weeds from the ploughed field.
  3. Properly level the field by ladder.
  4. Prepare field ditch (8”x 12”) and connect the ditches to a safe outlet for proper drainage to avoid early waterlogging stress.
