Details of Innovation	To increase production in the brinjal (Solanum melongena) crop, 50 g or more lump of asafoetida (Ferula assafoetida) is tied in the cloth and kept in the channel of water. When the water is allowed to pass from this channel, it will dissolve the asafoetida gradually. In this way, two to three times asafoetida is placed in the channel. This treatment will increase the production of the brinjal crop. Few people are using this practice in the village. He has learned this practice from others. Innovators are not aware of any other practice apart from this to increase crop yield. It is a traditional practice.
