Nutrient management
▪ Soak seeds of pearl millet / finger millet in Panchagavya (35 mL in one litre of water) for 7–8 hours before sowing for the production of disease-free seedlings.
▪ Mix the seeds with the extract of Ashwagandha and Datura (for 1 kg seeds, pound 250 gms of Ashwagandha / Amukura (Withania somnifera) roots and 50 gms of Datura / Oomathai (Datura metel) leaves by adding water) and shade dry before sowing. This will help in the production of healthy and disease-free seedlings.
