Paddy Farming Tips: Cultivate this type of paddy in the month of March, there will be bumper yield in 60 days

Paddy Farming Tips: Right now, Lakhimpur Kheri, UP’s farmers are satha paddy planting. Satha paddy is ready in sixty days. Although Satha is a kind of paddy ready in 60 days, its farming causes the groundwater level to drop quickly; hence, it has been forbidden. Actually, the fields remain vacant for a few months after the sugarcane and wheat harvests. Under such circumstances, farmers raise Satha paddy crops on their land.

Satha paddy calls for greater water for irrigation; hence, this is noteworthy. In such a case, groundwater is utilized for irrigation because March-April sees less rain. This is causing a fast declining groundwater level. This makes Satha paddy not allowed to be planted. Nevertheless, farmers grow Satha paddy and the government acts even with the prohibition.

Grow in loam soil

Two months from now is the ready Satha paddy crop. Given it is a cash crop, farmers are increasingly drawn to growing it. This results not only in harm to the surroundings but also in a growing danger of reducing the acreage of other cash crops like sugarcane. Simultaneously, loamy soil is regarded as the ideal for Satha paddy farming, as it has great water retention capacity and the drainage system is also excellent.

Are many states seeing demand?

Farmer Nitesh Kumar Verma said during media interviews that we have been steadily cultivating Satha paddy crops for the last three years. If we consider sales in the marketplaces, one quintal of Satha paddy is sold for Rs 1500 to 2000 in sixty days. March and April saw Satha paddy seeded; it is ready in June. Many states are demanding this paddy, let me tell you. This paddy isn’t very thick. This explains why chuda is so sought after.
