A pit of 1 feet deep and 1 feet broad is made near the plant and in it, 10 to 50 kg fresh dung is placed per plant and watered regularly for 2 to 3 days. It is a traditional practice. 25 to 30 per cent people are using this practice. The effect of this treatment can be seen within a week and four to five times more growth is observed as compared to the normal growth. There is no side-effect of the treatment.
