Agriculture, as we all know, is the root culture that plays an important role in India’s economy. It is the key activity for more than half of the Indian population and comprises crop cultivation, animal husbandry, agroforestry, and much more.
India is regarded as the leading producer of a wide range of crops, and crops in India are classified into three seasons: Rabi, Kharif, and Zaid. Out of these three, Kharif crops, also known as monsoon crops are the crops that are cultivated in wet & hot climates. Rice, maize, cotton, and peas are just a few of the Kharif crops cultivated in India during the monsoons.
Major Crops Grown in Kharif Season
Rice
Rice is essential for the survival of millions of people throughout the world, especially in developing countries. In India, it is the primary foodgrain consumed by the vast majority of the population. Therefore, it becomes important to have a good yield for the food security of the nation. Land preparation for paddy is an important step to guarantee that the rice field is ready for planting. A well-prepared land keeps weeds at bay, recycles plant nutrients, and offers a soft soil mass for transplanting as well as a good soil surface for direct seeding.
STIHL farm implements have proven Valuable for their efficiency right from the beginning i.e., preparation of land. STIHL’s POWER WEEDERS with impressive digging performance and high-quality features as well as the ergonomic design make it possible for rice farmers to have great efficiency during soil preparation for raising nursery as well as for mainland preparation.
Cotton
Cotton is a tropical and subtropical Kharif crop. Cotton is a plant that is grown for its fiber. India is the world's third-largest producer of cotton and is renowned as the "White Gold". Cultivation of this “White gold” is typically associated with the use of chemicals, and discharge water contains nutrients, salts, and pesticides. This can efficiently be done with STIHL’s backpack mistblowers and Sprayers (SR/SG).
The flexible and strong tool is designed for usage in difficult environments. The mist blower is comfortable to handle because of the back cushioning that is molded to fit the body. The high exit speed of the air stream & mist droplet size make this possible to have a large range of dispersal.
Pulses
Crops such as green gram and black gram are the most significant leading crops in India during the monsoon season. Soil Preparation is one of the important steps which increases yield & reflects the quality of the crop at the end.
The quality and yield can be increased by using Power tillers that aid in soil preparation by turning the soil, weeding, aerating, and forming plantation rows. The 7 HP power tiller/weeder from STIHL is a multi-power tiller that can be connected to the sprayer, plough, ridger, puddling wheels etc. It can also be employed by small and marginal farms.
Even the most rigorous and hard groundwork is made exceedingly easy by this equipment. This equipment can also be used for making a row for plantations.
