I like cement sacks too But opted for polythene because it's more cost effective than cement bags and the heat generation / retention would have no major effect on Ugu though, as its a tropical crop and would not be affected by heat retention by the sacks. Plus, I also considered the fact that we don't really need so much soil to produce ugu, so we just went for something well fitting. But, even with cement bags, proper agronomic practices or management is key to having a great vegetable at the end of the day. Thanks for sharing your thought ma'am.
This is determined by your spacing . Using 60cm by 50cm I recommend for beginners, you'll need, about 2,222 seeds per plot. The seeds needed can either go up if the spacing is more close or less if the spacing is less close.
I saw somewhere that 4000 seeds is needed for an acre. That's not true I guess... And ummm can I use ridge to cultivate them as I have already existing ridges in d farm or must it be beds
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub But during harvest, does that means we shouldn't be expecting it to also reach the seed production (pods) stage if we're to use sunken beds??
Yes they are. And this sacks are used for experiment and update videos would be released on things and areas looked at, so as to help Ugu farmers manage their fields better.
