🌾 જમીનની તૈયારી અને ખેડ
જમીનની યોગ્ય તૈયારીથી એકસરખો ઉગાવો અને મૂળનો ઊંડો વિકાસ સુનિશ્ચિત થાય છે.
🌱 યોગ્ય જમીનનો પ્રકાર અને pH
Deep, well-drained sandy loam to loamy soils with pH 6.0 – 7.5. મગફળી requires loose, friable soil for easy peg penetration and pod development. Heavy clay or waterlogged soils are unsuitable.
✨ મુખ્ય કૃષિ ફાયદા
Well-aerated seedbed promotes rapid radicle emergence, uniform germination, and deep taproot anchorage essential for pegging and pod set.
- 1
Deep summer ploughing followed by 2–3 cross-harrowings to achieve fine tilth and destroy weed seed banks.
- 2
Field leveling using laser leveling or traditional methods; ensure proper drainage channels to prevent water stagnation.
- 3
Incorporate 10–15 tonnes of well-decomposed FYM or farmyard compost per acre during the last harrowing for soil conditioning.
- 4
Conduct a soil health test and apply sulfur or gypsum where needed to maintain pH within the optimal 6.0–7.5 range for nitrogen fixation.
🌱 વાવણીનો સમય અને પદ્ધતિ
Precise seed rate and spacing maximize light interception and canopy development.
| માપદંડ / પેરામીટર | ભલામણ / સૂચના | કૃષિ મહત્વ |
|---|---|---|
| વાવણી સમયમર્યાદા | Kharif: June–July with onset of monsoon | Rabi: October–November post-rainfall | Ensures adequate soil moisture for germination and protects early growth from dry spells. |
| બિયારણનો દર (એકર દીઠ) | 100 kg / Acre (સંશોધન અને હાઇબ્રિડ treated seeds) | Maintains recommended plant population for optimal canopy coverage and peg formation. |
| હાર અને છોડ વચ્ચેનું અંતર | 30 cm (row-to-row) × 10–12 cm (plant-to-plant) | Optimizes light interception, aeration, and provides sufficient space for underground pod development. |
| વાવણીની ઊંડાઈ | 5–7 cm in light soils; 4–5 cm in heavy soils | Ensures adequate soil contact for moisture uptake while allowing easy emergence of radicle and hypocotyl. |
💧 પિયત અને પાણી વ્યવસ્થાપન
Adequate moisture regulation supports strong vegetative and reproductive growth.
☀️ પાણીની જરૂરિયાત અને પિયત પ્રોફાઇલ
મગફળી is moderately drought-tolerant due to its deep taproot system. Under drip irrigation, apply 3–4 cm of water per event at 5–7 day intervals during active vegetative and reproductive phases. Drip-compatible with fertigation integration for precise nutrient delivery.
🌦️ Soil ભેજ વ્યવસ્થાપન
In rainfed conditions, conserve soil moisture through mulching with straw (2–3 tonnes/acre) immediately after sowing. Avoid moisture stress during flower initiation (25–45 DAS) and pod filling (55–85 DAS) by providing 2–3 protective irrigations if rainfall is deficient.
- ✓
First irrigation at 3–5 DAS if pre-sowing irrigation was not applied; critical for uniform germination.
- ✓
Vegetative phase: light irrigations at 10–12 day intervals to support leaf area development and nodulation.
- ✓
Critical stages — Flowering (30–40 DAS) and Pod Filling (50–80 DAS): maintain consistent soil moisture; water stress during these phases causes flower drop and poor peg development.
- ✓
Withhold irrigation 10–12 days before harvest to allow pods to dry in situ and improve shell quality and shelf life.
🧪 ખાતર અને પોષણ વ્યવસ્થાપન
Balanced crop nutrition supports robust plant structure and premium produce quality.
| પોષક તત્વ | ભલામણ કરેલ માત્રા (એકર દીઠ) | ઉપયોગ પદ્ધતિ અને સમય |
|---|---|---|
| નાઇટ્રોજન (N) | 20–25 kg/acre | 50% basal at sowing + 50% top-dressing at 30 DAS (first weeding) |
| ફોસ્ફરસ (P₂O₅) | 40–50 kg/acre | 100% basal as DAP (18:46:0) or SSP incorporated at sowing |
| પોટાશ (K₂O) | 30–40 kg/acre | 100% basal as MOP (60:0:0) at sowing; supports pod filling and oil synthesis |
🌿 નિંદામણ નિયંત્રણ અને આંતરખેડ
Timely weed control ensures optimal nutrient and moisture availability for crop seedlings.
-
1
પ્રથમ નિંદામણ અને ગોડ: Carry out at 15–20 DAS using a hand hoe or rotavator. Keep hoeing shallow (2–3 cm deep) to avoid damaging surface roots and pegs. This establishes a weed-free stand during critical early competition period.
-
2
બીજી વાવણી અને પાળા ચઢાવવા: Perform at 30–35 DAS. Earthing-up around the plant base prevents exposed pegs from sunscald, improves soil aeration, and encourages additional root and peg formation for better pod set.
-
3
Mulching Application: Apply straw or green leaf mulch (2–3 tonnes/acre) after second weeding to conserve soil moisture, suppress weeds, and moderate soil temperature. Remove mulch just before harvest for easier digging.
🛡️ જીવાત અને રોગ નિયંત્રણ
Proactive crop monitoring and integrated management ensure healthy crop development.
🐛 જીવાત નિયંત્રણ અને સંરક્ષણ
- Termites (Odontotermes spp.): Cause hollowing of seeds and seedling damage. Management: Treat seed with Chlorpyrifos 20 EC (2 ml/kg seed) or apply Carbofuran 3G (12–15 kg/acre) in furrow at sowing. Install pheromone traps at 10/acre for monitoring.
- Pod Borer (Helicoverpa armigera): Larvae bore into developing pods and consume kernels. Management: Spray Emamectin Benzoate 5 SG (0.3 g/L) or Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (0.3 ml/L) at peak flowering (35–40 DAS). Use pheromone traps at 5/acre. Destroy crop residues post-harvest.
- Jassids / Leafhoppers (Amrasca biguttula): Cause hopperburn with yellowing and curling of leaves. Management: Spray Imidacloprid 17.8 SL (0.3 ml/L) or Acetamiprid 20 SP (0.5 g/L) at first sighting. Maintain field hygiene and remove alternate hosts.
🔬 રોગ નિયંત્રણ અને ઉપચાર
- Early Leaf Spot (Cercospora personata): Brown circular spots with yellow halos on lower leaves leading to defoliation. Management: Spray Propiconazole 25 EC (0.5 ml/L) or Mancozeb 75 WP (2 g/L) at first appearance; repeat at 15-day intervals. Ensure proper spacing for canopy airflow.
- Late Leaf Spot (Passalora arachidicola): Small dark brown spots on both leaf surfaces; severe infection causes premature leaf fall. Management: Spray Tebuconazole 25 EC (0.5 ml/L) or Trifloxystrobin + Tebuconazole (0.3 ml/L) at 30% disease incidence. Remove infected debris after harvest.
- સફેદ Rust (Albugo candida): સફેદ powdery eruptive growth on undersides of leaves, stunting, and yellowing. Management: Spray Copper Oxychloride 50 WP (3 g/L) + Mancozeb (2 g/L) at early stage. Practice crop rotation with non-legumes and use સંશોધન અને હાઇબ્રિડ disease-free seeds.
