AGRO-TECHNOLOGY
FOR MUSLI CULTIVATION
As musli grows
naturally in most parts of Central region of India, the normal
climate of the central region suits the crop most and as per
practical experience it can also grow successfully in the wide
range of temperature and rainfall. Sandy loam soil with
proper drainage system facilitates its growth. The complete
cultivation has four major parts namely:
- Land
Preparation
- Plantation
- Maintenance
- Harvesing
LAND
PREPARATION

tillering is must to give land a better pulverization and dryness
