Soil Management & Conservation
Cover Crop
We brought in the concept of cover crop for soil conservation. For cover crop seed are selected from five different families then mixed and sown in vineyards. Just prior to the flowering this crops are cut and mulched on the ground or ploughed in the soil. With this strategy farmer are able to harvest atmospheric nitrogen for the crop, increase in Organic Carbon content of the soil which helps effective and efficient use of applied fertilizers. This ultimately lead to achieve our goal of reduction in contamination of ground water resources and degradation of soil. Excess application of fertilizers had very bad impact on the soil micro flora and fauna which make soil dead. With the cover crop soil microbiology is developed and flourished making soil live and productive.
Bio-fertilizers
We provide quality affordable low cost bio-nutrition products like PSB, KMB, PGPR, Mycorrhiza effective tool to improve soil fertility and better utilization of inherent soil nutrients. Application of FYM, compost, jeevamrut, panchygavya, organic slurry serve excellent substrate as well as source of effective microbes to improve livelihood of the soil.

Disease Forecast
Based on the weather forecast disease management decision support system is provided to the farmer. According to prevailing weather conditions probability of the occurrence of key diseases in Grapes crop are forecasted and individual plot specific alert of the same is given to farmers. Farmers needs to apply pesticides only in case of high risk. Generally in bad weather conditions farmers tends apply pesticides heavily without understanding risk. Even sometimes farmer have done preventive application of pesticides in that case disease occurrence risk ultimately lowered. So with this tool optimal need based pesticides application is done for disease management. This helps to reduce pesticides load on the fruits resulting less or nil pesticides residues enabling for safe food production. At the same time with reduced rate of pesticides application proved beneficial for environment and ecology conservation.
