Bed making Phase 2

The bed making starts with  marking of  soil and wetting it properly so that it can be dug according to the size needed ..
Each bed  is 2feet wide and  about a feet and a half  high and   there is a gap of 1 ft  walking distance ..

Water  was  one of the  biggest hurdle here.. we needed soo much of water  suddenly and  we were not informed of it  before the workers from pune landed.. so   we had to rush in and  search for water tankers to  get water from the near by water sources .. awwwww.. it was such a pain ...  power cuts .. machines problems .. pipe line problems ..   ..if only i knew it earlier would have been  a lot easier in arranging for the water ..

anyways  it was  delay  by two days due to the  water issue.  then the work started off..  bed making starts with marking and digging up the soil and  making  beds...  regular  wetting with piper  while working was  very  important ..   a plank was used to finish the borders neat and in shape...

It will take another  2 days  more for the beds to be ready i guess and then the drip line will be added to it ...

if see closely the foggers are also  connected in half of the farm  in the meanwhile when the water issue was going on .. anyways it will be continued  after bed making and  will post more pics of them laters.,,,

Bed making stage 1

Making of beds is one of the important steps in a achieving a good crop. As mentioned in the previous posts, the vermicompost, rice husk and soil have been throughly mixed and rotovated with a blade so that it pulverised and mixed properly.
Then the whole of the farm is made wet with excess of water and  then let it come back to the Vapsa condition. After the  vapsa condition is  brought back it is rotovated with a tiller one last time  and   then the soil is ready for bed making .....
