KEY FARMING POINTS

SOIL TYPE =  Cassava is a versatile crop that can be grown in a variety of soil types. However, it prefers well-drained, light to medium-textured soils. Cassava can tolerate poor soils, but it will produce higher yields in fertile soils. SOIL PH = 5 to 7.5 CLIMATE / TEMPERATURE = Cassava is a tropical crop that requires a warm climate with a long growing season. It grows best in temperatures between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius (77 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit). Cassava is sensitive to frost and will not tolerate temperatures below 15 degrees Celsius (59 degrees Fahrenheit). SPACING = The spacing requirement for cassava plantation varies depending on the variety of cassava, the climate, and the desired yield. However, a general rule of thumb is to plant cassava cuttings 12 to 18 inches apart in rows that are 3 to 4 feet apart. This spacing will give the plants enough room to grow and produce a good yield. SEASON OF PLANTING = The season of planting cassava varies depending on the climate. In tropical climates, cassava can be planted year-round. However, in subtropical and temperate climates, cassava should be planted in the spring, after the last frost date. MANURING & FERTILIZATION = Fertilizers requirement depends on the fertility or quality of the soil. WATER MANAGEMENT = Cassava is a relatively drought-tolerant crop, but it still needs regular watering to produce a good yield. The ideal soil moisture level for cassava is between 60 and 70% of field capacity. Field capacity is the amount of water that a soil can hold after it has been drained. HARVESTING DURATION = The harvesting duration of cassava varies depending on the variety, climate, and growing conditions. However, most cassava varieties mature in 6 to 12 months after planting. However, some varieties may take longer to mature, especially in cooler climates YIELD = The yield of cassava varies depending on the variety, climate, growing conditions, and management practices. However, the average yield of cassava is between 10 and 25 tons per acre. In some cases, yields of up to 40 tons per acre can be achieved. However, these yields are typically only achieved with optimal growing conditions and management practices.   NOTE: Seed Treatment kit is optional. Bio-pesticides or Bio-fungicides can be applied on a preventive dosage or when any pest, fungal, or bacterial diseases are identified. Recommended dosage on this crop schedule can vary depending on soil health, environmental conditions, and pest attacks. Add available forms of Phosphorus and Potash depending on the crop and crop varieties before every Transplantation. Add available forms of calcium and magnesium as per the requirement. 1-acre POORNIMA KIT contains: - NPK caps = 2 caps Zinc caps = 1 cap Cropforce Nano Powder = 120gm Humigrow Nano Powder = 120 gm Mycorrhiza nano powder = 100 gm   PRECAUTIONS: - Biofertilizer is not a chemical fertilizer hence do not mix with agrochemicals. Do not expose to direct sunlight or heat. Use Bio-fertilizer before or after 3-4 days of use of chemical fertilizer. Please, clean the sprayer before the use of Bio-fertilizer or bio-pesticide.
