What is Zero Budget Natural Farming?

Zero budget natural farming is based on cow dung and cow urine. A farmer can cultivate zero budgets on thirty acres of land from cow dung and cow urine. Jivamrit, Ghanjivamrit and Sage Bijamrit are made from cow dung and urine of indigenous species. Use of these in the field leads to an increase in the nutrients as well as biological activities in the soil. Jeevamrita can be sprayed once or twice a month in the field, while bijamrita is used to treat seeds. The farmer cultivating this method does not have to buy any kind of manure and pesticide chemicals from the market. Water and electricity for irrigation of crops is also spent at ten percent compared to the existing cultivation.

Successful example

Weekly spraying of cow dung and cow urine solution made from cow is done as fertilizer and also does not decrease the fertility of the land. While on one hand there is a quality yield, on the other hand, the cost of production is almost zero. Kansingh Katrathal, an experimental farmer of Sikar district in Rajasthan, has achieved encouraging success by doing natural farming in his field. According to Mr. Singh, earlier he used to do chemical and organic farming, but natural cow farming and cow urine based Zero Budget natural farming is proving more beneficial.

According to Subhash Palekar of Maharashtra, the architect of natural farming, what is being written and said in the name of organic farming is not correct.

Imported earthworm or homegrown earthworm?

Mr. Palekar, who considers the imported earthworms used in vermicompost manure to be harmful to the fertility of the land, says that in fact, there is no symptom of indigenous earthworms. This imported animal is not a earthworm but a wild animal named Iisenia fitida, which eats wood matter and cow dung on the ground. Whereas the native earthworm found in our soil and along with it the germs and bacteria present in the soil which causes damage to crops and plants, converts them into manure. At the same time, it keeps going up and down in the ground, due to which there are numerous holes in the ground, due to which the circulation of air and rain water gets replenished. In this way, native earthworm is the best carrier of water management. Also does the plow work of plowing the field?
