Rice farming using organic fertilizers

One of the investments now in the rural area is rice farming. The investor would spend for the labor and planting materials. The harvest goes to the investor since he had paid the rent to the land (used as rice field). Usually a hectare of rice field can yield 90 to 100 cavans of unprocessed rice (with hull or husk).. When milled the number of cavans or sacks will go down to 60 up to 70.

For a good farm manager he can use organic fertilizers that are almost free. The chicken manure in a livestock farm or the cattle manure are good fertilizers. With that kind of treatment on the land the harvest had drastically increased that a hectare can yield up to double of the 90 to 100 cavans or unprocessed rice. Take note that organic rice is more expensive in the market.

Rice doesn't grow in our normal farm land, it grows only on the river side. If you don't plant it that side you shouldn't expert to have rice grow in your farmland to mature enough, unless you're irrigating it steadily before it will grow healthy and germinate seeds at the right time. Some use fertilizers to make it grow with bigger seeds, but i see such as artificial way of manure, which is adding chemicals to the plant and makes it lose natural nutrients that makes it taste sombre at times after harvest.

The use of fertiliser in the farmlands is an important thing the farmers should take note of, this will increase the farm yields by ×2 . In my country, the government subsidize fertilisers for farmers. So, it is readily available for use . There are locally manufactured fertilisers too within the reach of the farmers.

Most farmers here do not plant the crop when they have no budget for the fertilizers. Our government agency for the agriculture is formulating a program to provide free organic fertilizer to the farmers who cannot afford to buy. The organic fertilizers are mostly compost and made of animal manure which they can get for free.

It us good for the government to help farmers to get their hands on the needful to grow their crops rapidly to mature in time and grow fine and fruit bearing crops.

Here in my country the government supply those organic fertilizers to farmers, but not every vulnerable farmer is entitled for that, they're simply selective when offering such.

Organic fertilizer is not bad for rice farming anyway but rice is somehow difficult to grow in arid land.it required a land with much nutrients that is why it is usually grown in waterside where there is so much water or damp which will not make it to die easily due to lack of water or fertilizer to make it germinate well.

Rice farming is fast growing farming business and has also give food and employment to so many even in the developed countries. The use of fertilizer is also becoming a common practice in agriculture and it is to enhance the yield of the farm produce. Usage of organic fertilizer is the best so as to prevent any other environmental hazards which the inorganic one may likely caused. It also reduce the risk that are involved in taking inorganic one into the body. In the usage of organic fertilizer the cost is reduced than usage of inorganic ones and there by also alllows the famers to have much more profits. Sometimes organic is readily available than the inorganic ones.
