Other Information:

The ideal time for spraying the karaisal is between 3 p.m and 7 p.m. In the absence of any sprayer. Farmers can mix this solution along with the irrigating water. For an acre, about 200 litres of karaisal is sufficient. It can be sprayed once or twice a month. The karaisal mixed with irrigating water acts as a tonic for the soil and makes it rich in nutrients. Earthworms which live deep under the soil surface, come to the top to feed on this solution.
