Hello Sir
Black gram (Urad Dal) is cultivated as rain-fed crop in cool hills and warm plains it is also grown as pure crop in rice fallows after the harvest of the first or second crop of paddy.
It can also be grown up to a height of over 2,000 meters.
Heavy soils are the best type of soils for this plant.
It also grows quite rapidly on brown alluviall and black cotton soils.
It can also be grown as pure or mixed crop during kharif season
Varieties grown in India: T-9, Co-2, S-1, TAU-2, TMV-1, KM-2, Syama and Sumanjana
Seeds and Sowing
Seed rate: Pure crop - 20 kg ha-1
Mixed crop - 6 kg ha-1
Spacing: 25 cm x 15 cm
Sowing: Plough the land 2-3 times thoroughly and remove weeds and stubbles. For seed treatment in black gram, two Rhizobium cultures viz. KAU-BG-2 and BG-12 are recommended.
Manuring
FYM 20 t ha-1 (as basal dose)
Lime 250 kg ha-1 (or dolomite 400 kg ha-1 )
N 20 kg ha-1
P2O5 30 kg ha-1
K2O 30 kg ha-1
Lime may be applied at the time of first ploughing. Half the quantity of nitrogen, the whole of phosphorus and potash are applied at the time of last ploughing. The remaining 10 kg nitrogen can be applied as foliar spray of 2 per cent urea solution in two equal doses on the 15th and 30th day after sowing.
Plant protection:Apply carbaryl 0.15 per cent suspension, if pests are observed in serious proportions.
