Planting period and method of cultivation Sesbania Gradiflora seeds can be sown on the embankment or along the embankment. Also, if fodder is to be sown on vacant land, it can be sown densely by sowing seeds at a distance of 6 to 8 feet between two ridges. A 1 foot deep 1 foot wide tractor should remove the sari, add a lot of dung manure or lentil manure in it, put seeds in it in a dense manner, cover the soil a little and release a lot of water. Land, water, manure and climate can increase or decrease the germination capacity.

Fertilizer and water planningIrrigate immediately after planting and then at intervals of 3 to 4 days, then continue watering as per soil requirements. Initially you would have applied manure but since you harvest these trees frequently you will need D.A.P, 10.26.26 after each harvest. Granular chemical fertilizers should be used.

Harvesting / production / use With proper fertilizer and water planning, plants can grow 8 to 10 feet in 2 to 3 months for the first harvest. Then cut all the upper part by keeping 4 feet bottom at the bottom. After that, a large number of branches come to that bud. Large branches should be removed for fodder at intervals of 15-20 days after them.
