In addition to conventional farming, farmers may also make considerable money by cultivating select seasonal crops. We are discussing capsicum, a fantastic crop that can be cultivated for very little money. By planting it, farmers may make enormous profits. There is a high market demand for capsicum. In addition to being utilized in veggies, it is also reasonably priced.
Farmers easily make between 1.5 and 2 lakhs.
Growing capsicums is an excellent use for sandy loam soil. The soil has a considerable amount of organic materials. Growing capsicums yields a nice crop if the drainage is also excellent. In addition to conventional farming, farmer Akbar Ali, who lived in Majitha village in the Barabanki area, began growing capsicum. He made a healthy profit from this. He is now growing capsicum in around two bighas. He is making between one and a half and two lakh rupees every harvest from this farming.
Hard labor and expense are minimal.
In an interview with the media, capsicum farmer Akbar Ali said, “I primarily grow vegetables.” This comprises, among other things, tomatoes, capsicums, cauliflower, bitter gourds, and brinjal. We now grow capsicum in around two bighas, with each bigha costing roughly 20,000 rupees. This covers the price of labor, water, seeds, insecticides, etc. For a single crop, the profit ranges from 1.5 to 2 lakh rupees.
How are capsicums grown?
It is really simple to grow. We deliver its seeds first. Next, get its nursery ready. After that, we prepare the land by adding manure, cow dung, and heavy plowing. After that, we create ridges across the area and scatter the chilli plants over it. It is irrigated right away. We must apply insecticides to the trees as they begin to develop a bit. All we need to do is take care of it a little. The produce that we may sell in marketplaces begins to emerge 60 to 65 days after the sapling is planted.
