The Farming House

In almost every rural area, people use direct water supply either from the groundwater or they depend on seasonal rain. Irrigation is becoming a bigger problem because most of the groundwater is already used. Even in those areas where plenty of water availability, people use unnecessary extra water in irrigation because of no precision and measurement.  Sprinkler irrigation is one of those few irrigation techniques that help to use water precisely. It can save up to 40% of the water we generally use in irrigation.   Let's understand what is the overall estimated cost of sprinklers in one acre area.  Sprinkler irrigation system cost per acre What is a sprinkler irrigation system? Sprinkler irrigation systems use to sprinkle irrigation water as natural rain. These sprinklers break the flowing water into drops and these drops fall like rain from the sprinklers. All the sprinklers fix on a height and connect with the main water pumping source.  This source creates pressure on the water

These days people are getting excited by watching the misleading videos and attractive thumbnails on the success of the goat farming business in Bihar.  In reality, the goat farming business is not as easy as it seems. Practically there are major factors that decide the fate of the goat farming business in Bihar even after one gets proper training. The problem is people don't get proper information on investment and profit estimation with a proper breed of goat. Here, we integrated a project report(that is sustainable) for 20+1 barbari goat farming in Bihar. Sustainable goat(barbari) farming in Bihar The simple purpose of goat farming is selling goats and their milk. In the goat farming business, certainly. you will not earn any profit for the initial first year of business.  If you make goat farm sustainable, then you can get extra benefits from it for the entire year.  How can we make a goat farm sustainable? In the animal farming business, one thing is certain in dairy farming,

Greenhouse farming is a very important way to produce those crops we can't grow in the offseason. Even in the least agricultural friendly conditions, we can grow most of the plant-based vegetables, flowers, fruits, and microgreens in the greenhouse.  Greenhouses provide an important barrier between agricultural areas and sunlight. We can control the sunlight effect on various plants inside the greenhouse. Let's understand how can we grow vegetables inside the greenhouse.  Greenhouse vegetable farming in 1/2 acre We can grow any plant or vine-based vegetables inside greenhouse. One major advantage of greenhouse farming is that we can practice it even on non-agricultural land.  Before starting, we need some requirements to make a greenhouse and process further. We are going to understand the requirements for a poly sheet greenhouse that is easy to make, maintain, and cheaper than a glass greenhouse. Greenhouse vegetable farming setup cost in 1/2 acre In a 1/2 acre area, we need t

With the increasing rate of population, agricultural land is becoming shorter and shorter. In cities, there is very little agricultural land left. In urban areas, people are shifting to animal farming by leaving plant-based agriculture because of less land and less soil fertility. It creates a huge problem for people in cities.  Vertical farming solves the problem of less land and high productivity. The vertical farming method provides space to increase production 4 to 5 times on the same land as we can practice 4-acre agriculture production just in one acre.  Let's understand what is setup required for vertical farming and how much they cost? Vertical farming project setup and cost in 1/4th acre Vertical farming is a way of plant farming in that we create an artificial atmosphere to grow various crops by using all the required components like soil, water, and fertilizers in a precise amount.  One of the best advantages of vertical farming is that we can practice it even on non-agr

With the increasing demand for chicken in the market, it was always difficult to raise chicken faster. In 3 months period, poultry farms' reach was not effective in all the places. But 45 days chicken business plan fulfills the requirement, demand, and supply in the market of chicken.  Let's understand how 45 days chicken poultry farm works and what are the requirements to have a poultry farm. 45 days chicken(Broiler) business plan What is poultry farm business of 45 days? Broiler chickens are one of the fastest-growing chickens. The main reason for the short-term 45 days chicken business plan is demand and supply in the market. Chicken demand is so huge in the market. If we follow poultry farms with more than 3 months of breeds, then it can affect the stability of chickens in the market. It can increase inflation.  One more thing to starting 45 days chicken farm is because it gives a faster profit margin to the owner. Also, 45 days chicken farm is good to raise and handle a hu

There are very less veg options available that have the same or higher percentage of protein than meat. Spirulina is high in protein, quality diet, high in minerals, and we can consume them without cooking. Often, people call it future food.  There are very less farms of spirulina farming so its market price is very high. The spirulina farming business will become more profitable in the future. Let's understand the spirulina farming and project report for 1/4th acre. Spirulina farming  What is spirulina? Spirulina is a sea algae. Spirulina contains one of the highest percentages of protein in all diets. Vitamin B, K, antioxidants, and amino acid are some of the other major components of spirulina. One you start spirulina farming, you can harvest for next 5 months without adding or preparing any new culture.  There are two types of spirulina; human consumption and animal consumption.  We can harvest animal spirulina in the open-air pond but for human consumption, we use either a pol

Many times we aren't able to find some basic ideas of sustainability in poultry farming.  We all have ideas just below the nose but we ignore that easily. Most of the time we waste chicken poop without knowing the importance of the chicken poop.  Let's discuss this idea of sustainability of poultry farming as we will understand the use of chicken poop as a fertilizer.  Chicken poop fertilizer or chicken manure in USA We can make one of the most highly fertile and productive compost with chicken poop. It contains nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, and sulfur in plenty of percentages.  In many cases, it is found that chicken manure is more productive than cow dung compost.  Chicken manure fertilizer We use the word chicken manure for organic chicken poop fertilizer. We can use chicken manure either in a liquid mixture or raw.  One thing to remember with chicken manure is that we don't use it with root vegetables or any crop that produce inside the soil. We find the b

In the summer season, mangoes are very popular fruits. In India alone, there are more than 1500 varieties of mangoes. Once you plant a mango tree, it can produce mangoes for more than 50 years. Mangoes are healthier, rich, and provide Magnesium and Potassium to the body.  The mango farming business is profitable it doesn't get affected by seasonal storms and natural disasters.  Let's understand the mango farming business in one hectare with estimated investment and profit.  Mango farming and yield Mango farming follows the season-wise production of the cycle. We can get only one harvesting of mangoes in a year.  A mango plant takes 4 to 7 years to bear fruit for the first time. Later, the mango tree bear mangoes per year.  Mango yield per hectare For the first 10 years, mango tree produce a small yield of 10 to 15 kg per cycle. As mango tree start to become older, it produce 10 to 20 times more yield compared to first 10 years. Following is an estimation of yield per hectare fr

In agriculture, we can see multiple loopholes in the agricultural system(from selling to buying in the markets). These loopholes are the reasons that invite corruption. Sometimes it is easy to figure out the amount and depth of corruption in agriculture. Let's understand the use of blockchain technology in agriculture and how can it help to improve agriculture. Blockchain technology in agriculture in USA Blockchain technology can be revolutionary in agriculture if we will be able to execute and generalize it in farming.  Blockchain is a technology that uses to work precisely to keep storing records with safety and transparency. There is less than a 0.1% chance either to change records or make any cheating with these records. In blockchain technology, information is safe in a huge network. These networks hold all the records and if someone wants to change records, he will have to change them one by one which is almost impossible.  Blockchain system technology can help farmers and ag

The thing that bothers beginners of the Dairy farming business is the selection of high milk-producing cattle.  Holstein Friesian  is the full name of HF cow. For dairy farming purpose, people want to have hf cows instead of many desi cows. HF cow milk production is very high in comparison of desi Indian cows. Let's understand the performance and all the important points of HF cow and its milk.  HF Cow and milk per day HF cows are not Indian but they are popular in India. Some people can't distinguish between Jersey and hf cows.  Let's start with how to identify hf cows. HF cow milk production per day in India The cow milk production depends on the lactation frequency.  HF cow gets the first lactation after becoming at least 2 years old. Then for the next 8 to 10 months, she produces milk, and rest of 1.5 to 2 months she rests.  On the first lactation, Hf cow produces 35 to 40 liters of milk per day for the next 2 months. Later it starts to decrease and stop to 30 liters pe
