How to Use Vermicompost in Chickpeas (Chana) Farming

Application Rates

For Chickpeas (Chana), apply 400-500 kg of Mitti Gold Vermicompost per bigha. Mix it into the soil during field preparation or at the time of sowing for best results.

When to Apply

Apply during final land preparation or as a basal dose directly in the seed furrows.

Step-by-Step Application Guide

1

Soil Tilling

Prepare the land with a final round of deep ploughing.

2

Basal Application

Broadcast 400-500kg/bigha uniformly across the field.

3

Mixing

Lightly harrow the compost into the top 4 inches of soil.

4

Drilling

Alternatively, drill the compost directly into the seed lines along with seeds.

5

Initial Irrigation

Water immediately to support early root nodulation.

Protection from disease

Mitti Gold Vermicompost is rich in beneficial microbes like Trichoderma and Pseudomonas, which create a biological shield around the roots. This significantly reduces the risk of soil-borne diseases such as Fusarium wilt and root rot in pulse crops.

Product Outcomes in Chickpeas

Using vermicompost leads to better root development, increased number of pods per plant, and significantly higher grain weight. It also enhances the plant's resistance to wilt and other soil-borne diseases.

Helping the Soil Ecosystem

Vermicompost promotes the growth of Rhizobium bacteria which are essential for nitrogen fixation in pulses. It also improves soil structure and water-holding capacity.

Market & Export Benefits

Organic chickpeas are in high demand in both domestic and export markets. Uniform grain size and chemical-free production fetch premium prices for farmers.
