Boost Income: Plant Groundnuts After Potato-Mustard Harvest in Empty Fields
•Farmers can earn additional income by cultivating groundnuts in fields left empty after potato and mustard harvest.
•Dr. Mahak Singh of Chandrashekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur, recommends groundnuts due to favorable conditions and short maturity.
•March-April is the ideal sowing period; improved varieties like ICGS-44, TG-24, ICGS-1, TG-1, and DH-86 offer high yields.
•Groundnut cultivation also enhances soil fertility, benefiting subsequent crops by increasing nitrogen content.
•Kanpur, Kanpur Dehat, Kannauj, Farrukhabad, Etawah, and Mainpuri are suitable districts for this profitable crop.
