Death threatening Pesticides all over

Who is guilty for excess Pesticides in food ?

Farmers

• Most of our farmers are unaware of the adverse effects of pesticides.

• And honestly, I wouldn’t really blame them for ignoring the long-term effects to the soil and falling pof using pesticides and increasing their produce. Because in the end, they need to make ends meet to

Salesperson

• Those who sell pesticides to farmers do not train them about the usage levels, precautions, etc. and afarmers tend to use them indiscriminately.

Middelman

• Considering the number of middlemen in the chain from the farmers to the consumers, farmers are fodo with a paltry amount in return of their efforts.

We == guilty

• If at all anyone is to blame, I think it is us. We urban dwellers are so cut off from agriculture that we how much the farmers’ problems are going to affect us.



Myth of Soil Report card or Health card

These are all myths since the report will always mention a particularNutrient is not available in in the soil. So we need to add them externally.

Actually the nutrient is available in the soil but it is not available in therequired format. E.g. It is present dia ,tri,Qudra format but requirement isof single format.

The efforts should be made to convert these unavailable format to availableformat.

What is the Solution?



What is the Zero Budget spiritual Farming ?

Zero Budget spiritual Farming means for all the crops, the production cost will be zero. In Natural Farming nothing has to be purchased from the outside.

All things required for the growth of the plant are available around the root zone of the plneed to add anything from outside.

Our soil is prosperous-full of nutrients. How much nutrients the crops takes from the soil? ORemaining 98 to 98.5% nutrients are taken from air, water & solar energy.

Agriculture Universities says false that we have to add fertilizers from outside. If science sbody is constituted by air and water, then where is the need to add the fertilizers from the

Zero Budget Natural Farming Borrows It’s

Principles from Nature …

Stop purchasing and pouring

chemicals fertilizers

No need of harmful pesticides

No need of heavy tractorsHybrid seeds are not needed for

more production

No weeding required

Stop more flood irrigation

Use natural fertilizers to make soil

healthy initially

Use natural replacements forpesticides

Use techniques that Nature uses to

improve and maintain soil quality

Understand and use inter crop

ecosystem to benefit from it

Indian Local Cow vs Jersey, Holliston cow



India Local Cow

One can do farming of 30 Acres using single Indian Deshi/Local Cow.

Cow generally gives 9-11 kg of cow dung everyday

For Jivamruta preparation ,we requires 10 kg cow dung for 1 Acre.

1 gm of Cow dung has 300 -500 Crores of Bacteria.

Capabilities of there bacteria's to convert Dia Tri format atoms single format single atom.

The smell of dung attracts the natural earthworm which is currently missing in the farms. Earthworm makes theland porous. This will eventually increase the water table of land.



Terrace Gardening



Terrace garden set up

Put above mixture in the kundi/pot/ barrel.

Take soil and Ghanjiwamruta in equal quantity(50:50) & then mix it and keep it for 48 hrs and then dry it under

Take 100 Lit barrel for fruits make holes from all side & cover it with Jute bag(Goanpat).This will keep it cool in the

Customized Bed :Make 2 layer of bricks with polyethylene as base put soil on it and use it for green leafy vegetafenugreek(Methi), Spanich(Palak), Pundia ,Dhania,Cabbage etc.

For green leafy vegetable take fruit boxes.

Take 2 ft * 1 ft bin /pot (Kundi) for Climbers or creepers seeds like BitterGuard ,RidgeGourd etc.



Ghanjivamrut1

Place under sunlight for 3-4 hrs then make it fine by crashing it and feel it in bag and store it in shadow.

Mix above all contents and keep it for 48 hrs

Take 100 gm Besan (except soys and groundnut)

Take 100 gm Jagarry or fruits like Chiku or papaya

Take 10 kg of Cow dung



Ghanjiwamurut 2

Use it for 1 yr.

Give Sunlight for a day. It is ready now.

Place the mixture in the Shade for 48 hrs .

Mix some Jivamrut in it.

Take 10kg cow dung ( dry and fine)



Jiwamrut

Jivamrut can be used as Bij amrut

Keep it 48 hrs under shade.

Use Stirrer 2 times daily in clockwise direction.

Mix with Stirrer in clock wise direction , because positive bacteria created in clockwise driectiona nd vice versa.

Add 100 gm Besan

Add 100-200 gm Jaggary

Add 1 kg cow dung

Add 500 ml – 1 Ltr Cow urine or Man urine

20 litr water



Process for Sowing

Take plant or seed,dip there seed/roots in the Jivamrut and then sow/plant it in kundi/box.

Get the Local seed.. Or plants from Nursury.

Always keep kundi on the 2 Bricks so air can be properly circulated and sanity.

Keep as it for 48 hrs before sowing seeds in Kundi.

Spray Jivamrut on Soil using spray pump.

Fill the kundi with soil and Ghanjivamrut if possible 50:50.



How to take care of plants?

Jiwamrut twice a month

Take 1 cup Jivamrut for 1 kundi

In rainy season put 2 cups

For fruits 100 ml for every 15 days

•2 month 200ml

•3 month 300 ml

•4 month 400 ml•Increase each month till 1 liter then continue

Spraying of of Jivamrut

•After sowing seed 1 month later Jivamrut spray 10 liter water 200 ml Jivamrut

•After 21 days second spray and continue after every 21 days.



Home Nursery

Take seeds and dip in Jivamrut

Sow seeds in the boxes

Spray some Jivamrut

After plant grows after 7 days have 3 spray of Jivamrut

• First spray : 10 lits water + 200ml Jiwamrut

• Second spray: After 7 days of First spray 10 Litr water + 500 ml Jivamrut

• Third spray :Before taking plant for plantation 10 lits water + 200 mlbuttermilk

• Spraying on the soil needs to be done.



Plantation

Please ask your child to do sowing

Take plant ,dip there roots in the Jivamrut and then plant it in kundi.

In Kundi place all different seeds allover at edges . Take seeds likeChilli and Chavali more.

Fruits –

• Dip seeds/sapling roots in Jivamrut

• Plant it in the big bin

• Dalimab Ganesh take guti and

• Sugarcane , Banana stem/kanda ,Mango seed or kalam Peru, Chiku ,

• Lemon



Mulching

Collect the leaves from nearby garden or roadside.

When we cut vegetable take waste dry in sunlight then put it as mulching in kundi.

Benefits

• First, the seeds are covered by this straw mulching to save from birds, insects and animals.

• Second, the microclimate is created to activate the micro-organisms and local earthworms.

• Third, the favorable condition is created to decompose the godown roots and to prepare the humus stock inthe soil for future new crop generation as a reserve bank.

• Fourth, the soil moisture is conserved in the soil and transpiration of soil moisture is restricted for thecontinuous soil micro-organisms utilization.

• Fifth, the humus saturated soil particles and soil biota in the upper most 10 cm layer of soil surface aresaved from the severe heat waves of sunlight in Grishma Ritu (summer), from cold winds in Winter Ritu andfrom heavy stormy rain drops of pre-mansoon and mansoon raindrops; which spring forward with the drearydemon speed of 7 meter (30 feet) per second on the soil!



Why Organic Farming is more Costlier?

When you add one ton (two bullock cart load) of farmyard manure, cost of that one ton F.Y.M. is 300 to 400 Rston of vermicompost (Eisenia Foetida Excreta) is from 4000 to 5000 Rs., in big cities, it is 10000 Rs per ton.

How much exploitation? 10 to 20 times more exploitation in organic farming. The rate of one bag of Urea (50rate of industrial organic fertilizer 50 Kg bag 550 Rs. Doubled the exploitation in organic farming.

What are the ingredients of these organic fertilizers? Some cake of Neem, Castor oil cake, Karanj cake, some husks, compost manures and some quantity may be nitrogenous fertilizer. This mixture is grinded, filled in thelabeled by very attractive multi coloured label and price 550 Rs! Doubled exploitation of the farmers and rurarate of one-litre Endo-Sulphan insecticides is 225 Rs.

In the organic farming industrial vegetative organic insecticide is prepared by Neem leaves, Karanj leaves, Lanleaves, Cow urine, all are priceless inputs and make the organic insecticide. Price? 1100 Rs per litre. May be

Four times exploitation in this organic farming than chemical farming. Cost of production of each crop is hiin organic or biodynamic farming than chemical farming.While practicing organic farming, you have to expendinput and you have to purchase it.



Waapasa• Waaphasa is that microclimate in the soil, by which the soil organisms

and roots can live freely with availability of sufficient air and

essential moisture in the soil.• In one sentence, shortly, the Waaphasa means the mixture of 50 % air

and 50 % water vapours in the cavities between two soil particles.• Why water vapour ? Why not water ? Because, any root takes the

molecules of water vapour. 92 % microorganisms and 88 to 95 % roothairs are working in the upper most 10 cm surface soil.

• So, the air must be circulating in this surface layer and vapourmolecule must be available in this 10cm surface layer.

• When this will happen? When, we give water outside the canopy ofthe plant.

• When you give water outside the canopy of the plant i.e. outside theshadow of the plant at 12 O’ clock, then only Waaphasa will be

maintained. The roots that take water are situated at the outercanopy.
