Ingredients bullock cart
Details of Innovation In this method, the organic fertilizer is filled in the bullock cart. A wood -plank is attached to the rear end of the bullock cart, with two or three holes made at the bottom end. These holes are made such that they appear exactly over the ploughed furrows. A man sits atop the fertilizer heap and pushes it through the holes as the bullock cart moves on. This method ensures that the fertilizer drops exactly where intended, i.e. in the furrows. This method is indigenously developed and used by many farmers.
