    This document discusses moth bean production in India. Some key points: - Moth bean is an important crop for Rajasthan, accounting for 85% of the area and 58% of production in India. It is drought tolerant and can be grown in adverse climatic conditions. - Varieties recommended for cultivation include RMO 225, RMO 435, and RMO 423, which offer early maturity, drought tolerance, and high seed and fodder yields. - Proper agronomic practices like seed treatment, population establishment, fertilizer application, weed control and plant protection measures are necessary to achieve good moth bean yields.

    Best performing varieties


    in all agro-climatic zones

    RMO-257 and RMO-435

    SEED TREATMENT-MOST ECONOMIC AND EFFECTIVE

    USE CARBEDEZIM @2.5G/KG SEED


    USE RHIZOBIUM CULTURE @600G/ha.
    MAKE AVAILABILITY OF EFFECTIVE CULTURE-THROUGH
    IMPROVING STORAGE & TRANSPORTATION

    PERFECT POPULATION

    SPARY MONOCROTOPHOS 0.04% SOLUTION THRICE
    DUSTING OF FENVELRATE 0.4% & METHYL PARATHION 2%

    ONE HAND WEEDING & HOEING AT 25-30 DAYS AFTER SOWING


    OTHERWISE USE WEEDICIDES [email protected] Kg ai/ha

    SPRAY 500PPM SOLUTION OF THIOUREA AT VEGETATIVE AND


    FLOWERING STAGE FOR DROUGHT TOLERENCE.

    Intercropping of early maturing moth bean varieties with pearl millet


    in 3:1 ratio is more remunerative.
