Tips on Seed Usage and Smart Farming

Grow Better with the Right Practices

Choose the Right Variety:

Always select seed varieties suitable for your soil type, climate, and season. Check the crop calendar or ask our experts for guidance.

Use Certified or Truthfully Labeled Seeds Only:

Avoid using saved or uncertified seeds. Aadidisha seeds are tested for purity, germination, and performance.

Seed Treatment is Essential:

Before sowing, treat seeds with recommended fungicides or bio-inoculants to protect against soil-borne diseases and improve germination.

Prepare Land Properly:

Fine and well-leveled soil ensures better seed-to-soil contact. Use proper spacing to avoid overcrowding.

Follow Recommended Seed Rate and Spacing:

Using too much or too little seed affects yield. Follow the spacing, seed rate, and depth guidelines printed on our packets or ask our team.

Timely Sowing Matters:

Sow seeds during the ideal sowing window for your crop and region. Delayed sowing leads to poor yield and pest problems.

Irrigate Smartly:

Avoid over-irrigation in early stages. Give light irrigation after sowing and follow crop-specific irrigation schedules.

Monitor for Pests and Diseases:

Regularly scout your fields. Use integrated pest management (IPM) practices and consult local experts before spraying.

Use Balanced Fertilizers:

Overuse of urea or underuse of micronutrients can harm the crop. Use soil testing or crop advisory for balanced nutrition.

Harvest at the Right Time:

Don’t delay harvest. Timely harvesting improves quality and reduces storage losses.

Follow Crop Rotation:

Avoid sowing the same crop repeatedly in the same field. Rotating crops improves soil health and reduces pest buildup.

Use Mulching or Intercropping (Where Possible):

These methods help conserve moisture, control weeds, and increase returns.

Store Seeds in Cool & Dry Conditions:

Always store leftover seeds in airtight containers, away from sunlight and moisture, to maintain germination for next use.

Don’t Mix Old & New Seeds:

Avoid mixing old-season leftover seeds with new seeds—it can reduce uniformity and affect results.

Take Local Advice:

Conditions vary by region. Always consider local Krishi Kendra, Aadidisha team, or government agriculture officers for area-specific advice.
