Need Guidence on Coleus

[sachinrbmi]

I am a farmer from western uttar pradesh. My Land is situated about 70 kms from UP-Uttaranchal border. This Land is situated in Indo-Gangetic plains and is composed of fertile alluvial soil. Temperatures range from a low of six degrees to a high of 45 degrees. All Crops ranging from sugercane, rice, wheat, mentha are cultivated, mango and guava orchards are plentiful.

I am curious whether coleus can be cultivated on this land successfully. If it can be cultivated then can i get hold of some farmer who is doing Coleus in any part of UP...

I will be grateful if somebody can guide me related to the expected yield of coleus and methods of cultivation.. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Hello Sir

Coleus thrives better in porous and well drained soils with a pH ranging from 5.5 to 7.
Coleus grows very well in red sandy soils.But your soil is also suitable for coleus.

yield of about 1500 kg of dried tubers per hectare can be got.
Improved cultivation practices can give yoeld of of 2500 kg of dried tubers/ hectare.
