Agronomy & Management
Soil:
Fodder crops can be grown well on a wide range of soil types Soil pH should be 5.5 to 7.0, well drained soils are most suitable. Avoid acidic and saline soils.
Water & Irrigation:
Jumbo Gold should irrigate before 7 days intervals in summer and 12 days interval in rainy season. For better palatability crop should be with high moisture. Sufficient irrigation will boost the healthy and expected bio-mass yield in forage crops.
Sowings:
Although Jumbo Gold is easy to establish, prepare good seedbed for good germination and root development.
Sowing Type:
Ridges & Furrows:
For staggered sowing, harvesting, irrigation and fertigation ridges and furrows method is very successful to get high yield and high quality fodder.
Blocks Method:
Blocks method is another successful method in forage cultivation. Farmer can harvest the fodder as per in requirement and irrigate the same block.
Sowing Time:
Spring - Feb to April
Kharif - May to August
Rabi (Central India and South India only) - September to November
Spacing:
Jumbo Gold spacing is row to row 25 cm X plant to plant 10 cm
Post Cutting Activities:
Apply adequate nitrogen and water for regeneration of fresh leaves and Stems.
Cutting & Harvesting:
Jumbo Gold can cut at feed at any time but 1 meter to 1.5 meter is idle height to get more benefits from green fodder Jumbo Gold should cut above 6 to 8 inches height from the ground level while harvesting/ cutting which is necessary to get immediate re-growth for multi-cut.
Fertilizer:
Fertilizer should use according to the soil test results.
N-30 Kg (60 Kg Urea),
P-15 Kg (30 Kg DAP or 100 kg SSP),
K-10 Kg (20 Kg Potash) per Acre.
Adequate nitrogen will ensure the crop fast growth and quick recovery after cutting. Apply Nitrogen as top dressing to get optimum benefit.
Insect & Disease Management:
Jumbo Gold can be infected by Stem borer and Shoot borer. Apply 8 Kg of UMET per acre before sowing to control shoot and stem borer.
Post Cutting Activities:
Apply adequate nitrogen and water for regeneration of fresh leaves and Stems.
Cutting & Harvesting:
Jumbo Gold can cut at feed at any time but 1 meter to 1.5 meter is idle height to get more benefits from green fodder Jumbo Gold should cut above 6 to 8 inches height from the ground level while harvesting/ cutting which is necessary to get immediate re-growth for multi-cut.
