It is spread manually. By its use, more production of up to 4 to5 kilograms of cotton will be available. This fertilizer is sold in the market in some places and has no no side-effects. The innovator said that he noticed visible improvement in yield the first time he used this method, after which he applied to the entire crop with beneficial results. |
