Farmers' Harvest: Exceptional Carrot Seeds Yielding High Quality, High Yield, and Maximum Profit
In the agricultural heart of India, the introduction of a new high-performing carrot seed variety, 'Hisar Rasili', has brought about a significant shift in carrot cultivation. Developed by Shakti Vardhak Hybrid Seeds, this variety is well-adapted to Indian climatic conditions, making it an ideal choice for farmers in both irrigated and well-managed rainfed systems.
The ideal sowing window for 'Hisar Rasili' is September. This fast-maturing variety is ready to harvest within 85 to 95 days, producing conical roots approximately 30–35 cm long. The roots have a deep orange exterior and a light red core, giving them an attractive appearance and making them suitable for fresh consumption and juicing.
To achieve high yields and superior quality carrots from 'Hisar Rasili', it is essential to follow the best agronomic practices. Cultivate 'Hisar Rasili' in light sandy loam soils that are well-drained and free from salinity. Avoid compact, heavy, or waterlogged soils, as they negatively affect proper root formation.
Proper irrigation scheduling is another crucial factor. Subsequent irrigations must maintain adequate moisture, especially up to the shoulder formation stage (3/4th of root length). Over-irrigation must be avoided as it can lead to cracking or rot. A final irrigation should be skipped close to harvest to maintain sweetness and shelf life.
Weed control is essential during early growth stages. Conduct the first manual weeding at 25-30 days after germination. Avoid chemical weedicides close to harvest to ensure the produce remains safe for consumption. If green ear disease or rotting signs appear, remove infected plants promptly and avoid overwatering.
'Hisar Rasili' boasts a high beta-carotene content of 80 mg per 100 grams, enhancing its nutritional appeal and market demand. For optimal growth, apply 12 kg nitrogen (N), 12 kg phosphorus (P2O5), and 12 kg potash (K2O) per acre.
Farmers cultivating 'Hisar Rasili' can expect to reap the benefits of high yields and maximum profitability. In addition, Shakti Vardhak Hybrid Seeds Pvt. Ltd. offers another reliable seed for carrot cultivation, 'Hisar Madhur'. This variety matures in 80 to 90 days and produces 25 to 30 cm long slender roots with bright red internal and external coloration.
In conclusion, the cultivation of 'Hisar Rasili' offers farmers in India a valuable opportunity to grow a high-performing, nutritious, and marketable carrot variety. By adhering to the best agronomic practices, farmers can ensure they achieve the highest possible yields and profitability.
Adopting the cultivation of 'Hisar Rasili' can also extend to home-and-garden settings, offering homeowners an opportunity to grow a high-performing, nutritious, and marketable carrot variety in their gardens. Similarly, adhering to proper gardening practices, such as choosing light, well-drained soil, proper watering, and timely weed control, will help ensure the best growth and development of 'Hisar Rasili' in home gardens, just as they do in large-scale farming.
