It is said that 300 quintal seeds have been allotted from the department to Sitapur district. Seed Development Corporation will provide seeds to the Agriculture Department. After this, they will be distributed to the farmers through the reserve of agricultural seed.
Tanjay needed for paddy
According to experts, Devanja has a lot of need for green manure in the form of green manure, especially for paddy cultivation, to increase the fertility of the soil. However, despite the high demand, the availability of seeds is often low. Farmers in the district cultivated about 5.5 lakh hectares of land. Of this, paddy is cultivated in 1.5 lakh hectares of land. Paddy requires fertile soil. Because of this, many farmers planted Tanacha 30 to 45 days before the transfer of paddy.
