When to cultivate early Berseem in 2024 || Crop Reformer
Berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum) is the most important winter fodder crop and planted in a large scale throughout Punjab. It is fairly tolerant to light frost but its growth is retarded during temperature below 4-5 degree centigrade. Early planted crop especially which is well fertilized with phosphorus and farm yard manure, is at 2nd cutting stage, its growth is less affected than late planted crop, the 1st cutting of which has still not been harvested. Our advanced varieties are more affected by low temperature than Egyptian variety Masqavi. In this video, we have guided the berseem farmers about how to avoid ill effects of low temperature/frost injuries to their fodder crop during mid of December to mid of January.
Production of fodders is badly affected by frost during winter season. If suitable measures are not taken in time, then there is a chance of yield depression. Growth and health of plants may touch the minimum level. Production technology of fodders consist of remedial steps to control this loss efficiently and effectively. Amino acids and other nutrients, supplements can be used to increase the growth rate of berseem and to minimize the loss caused by frost.
We can achieve more cuttings of berseem by using these fertilzers. Fertilizers include nutraful dap fertilizer of simple dap fertilizer (diammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate fertilizer) at the sowing time. In this video, it has also been suggested to use 5kg of potassium poly sulphide with each irrigation. It will not only increase the production rate but also make the berseem crop more resistant to diseases. Sulphur content of this fertilizer improves the growth and health of the crop. Sulphur alone can also be used which is available of different companies like stulin (swat agro) and kumulus (fmc) etc. Price of phosphetic fertilizers is increasing day by day. We need to use these fertilizers efficiently to gain maximum benefit from them.
