Nutrient management

  • FYM @40 t/ha + vermicompost @5-10 t/ha + mulch with green leaves @12-15 t/ ha.
  • Oil cakes can also be used @ 2 t ha-1 in turmeric.
  • A study suggests that integrated application of coir compost @ 2.5 t ha-1 with FYM; Azospirillum; neem cakes @ 2 t ha-1, compost coir pith @ 5 t ha-1, and PSB enhances the soil health and turmeric yield.
