"Yes in scientific farming is problem but in N.F. it is good providing lot of mulch."

"you got rid of this grass?? great!!"

"Dear friend,
Please read " One Straw Revolution" book written by Masnobu Fukuoka Of
Japan. I am some lines

The clover and barley or rye sprout and grow an inch or two by the time
the rice is ready to be harvested. During the rice harvest, the sprouted seeds
are trampled by the feet of the harvesters, but recover in no time at all. When
the threshing is completed, the rice straw is spread over the field.
If rice is sown in the autumn and left uncovered, the seeds are often
eaten by mice and birds, or they sometimes rot on the ground, and so I enclose
the rice seeds in little clay pellets before sowing. The seed is spread out on a
flat pan or basket is shaken back and forth in a circular motion. Fine
powdered clay is dusted over them and a thin mist of water is added from time
to time. This forms a tiny pellet about a half-inch in diameter.
There is another method for making the pellets. First, the unhulled rice
seed is soaked for several hours in water. The seeds are removed and mixed
with moist clay by kneading with hands or feet. Then the clay is pushed
through a screen of chicken wire to separate it into small clods. The clods
should be left to dry for a day or two or until they can be easily
rolled between
the palms into pellets. Ideally, there is one seed in each pellet. In
one day it is
possible to make enough pellets to seed several acres.

My farm is in M.P. Hoshangabad.
Thank

"Dear Sir
I'm still unable to comprehend. Do tell me where are you located. I have my farm in Badlapur, Thane. I'm plagued by the problem of my seeds and seedling being eaten away by rats. I think your idea makes sense and will follow it.

"Dear Hirenji,
This is seed ball making technique for large amount of seed ball
making. Mixture of seeds and clay soil kneading and pass needed dough
through chicken net for making clods. These clods can be rolled after
some time by hands.
If not understand please remind me so i will explain properly.
Thanks
Raju"

"Unable to understand why the seed balls have to go through chicken net. Can you elaborate."

"Seed rate is about 50kg /acre"

"Mr ArunDikeji is well known organic farmer cum promoter of Indore M.P. He sown Munda indigenous variety  of Wheat with seed balls but not in zero tillage."

"Is this no-till wheat cultivation?"

"This is really a beautiful wheat crop. How much seeds were used?"

"What r the ground cover plants generally used here? plz reply"

"Growing Arher by direct seeding and inter cropping wheat in standing Arher. Very good courageous person converting his farm in to N.F."
