MenuFERTIGATION FOR MUSKMELON
Posted by BigHaat India on
Recent advances in present agricultural technologies has led to precision in supplying required nutrients to every crop. Fertigation is such technology where the required essential nutrients are supplied in readily available form to the plants at their root base.
Important is the selection of nutrients and providing right nutrient at the right time of the plant growth syncing with various physiological phases.
Following is the total nutrient providing schedules with quantities for muskmelon

Hello Thulasiram Sir , greetings, You are right that farmers won’t accept but too many nutrients in to the soil daily will not only saturate the ions which have bad effect on Soil pH as well as soil microorganisms. I have provided the mobile number to contact for any clarification so that farmers can speak to me for any clarifications. This fertigation is addition to the basal dose application.
Hai sir I think this fertigation schedule is not acceptable by farmer’s because muskmelon is 70 days crop it has the great thirst for nutrients you specified that 5 days once for schedule but farmer’s practices I observed that day after day plz let me clarify.
